A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and an energetic rightward slant. The letterforms show tapered, wedge-like serifs and softly bracketed joins, giving strokes a cut-from-the-pen feeling rather than rigid geometry. Capitals are compact but assertive, while lowercase forms are rounded and flowing with lively terminals; the numerals follow the same italic rhythm with clear, sculpted curves. Overall spacing and rhythm feel variable and organic, emphasizing motion and contrast over mechanical regularity.
Well suited for editorial headlines, standfirsts, pull quotes, and other emphasis-driven typography where an italic voice is desired. It can also work for book covers and display lines that benefit from strong contrast and a classic serif flavor, particularly at medium to large sizes.
The font conveys a classic, editorial tone with a touch of drama. Its steep italic posture and strong contrast suggest elegance and urgency, evoking traditional book typography and headline-style emphasis. The overall impression is refined and authoritative rather than casual.
Designed to provide a forceful italic serif voice that reads as traditional yet expressive, balancing classic bookish forms with heightened contrast and motion for attention-grabbing emphasis.
The italic construction is consistent across letters and figures, with noticeable curved entry/exit strokes and a slightly calligraphic stress. The boldness and contrast make it visually prominent, especially in larger sizes, while the sharp serifs and tight curves create crisp word shapes in running text.
