A delicate italic serif with sharply tapered terminals and hairline serifs, built on a consistent rightward slant. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with thin entry/exit strokes and fuller diagonals, giving letters a crisp, engraved-like rhythm. Uppercase forms are narrow and poised, with long, sweeping curves in letters like C, G, Q, and S; the lowercase is similarly slender with lively ascenders and descenders. Spacing reads open and luminous, with fine details that stay clean in the sample text and a distinctly editorial cadence across words and lines.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, magazine features, pull quotes, and other display-forward settings where an elegant italic voice is desired. It can also support refined branding applications such as wordmarks, packaging accents, and formal stationery, especially when set with generous spacing and comfortable sizes.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, leaning toward fashion and literary elegance rather than utilitarian text color. The strong italic gesture and sharp contrasts introduce a sense of drama and sophistication, suitable for expressive typography where refinement is part of the message.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-style italic serif voice with calligraphic finesse and pronounced contrast, prioritizing sophistication and rhythm in continuous text and prominent titling. Its sharp terminals and slender proportions suggest a focus on expressive, premium typography rather than rugged everyday readability.
The numerals and capitals share the same calligraphic contrast and tapered finishing, producing a coherent system that feels intentionally stylized rather than purely conventional. Curves and joins are drawn with a light touch, so the face reads best when its thin strokes are allowed enough size and printing/screen clarity to remain visible.
