This typeface is a slanted serif with pronounced contrast between thick main strokes and hairline connections, giving it a crisp, engraved rhythm. Serifs are bracketed and sharp, with many terminals ending in tapered, slightly hooked shapes that read as subtly calligraphic rather than purely mechanical. Capitals are broad and stable with strong diagonals, while lowercase forms show lively modulation—noticeable in letters like a, g, y, and z—where entry and exit strokes create a flowing baseline movement. Counters are moderately open, and spacing appears a touch generous, helping the heavy strokes remain distinct at display sizes.
It performs best in headlines, titles, and short passages where its contrast and energetic terminals can be appreciated. The weight and slant make it effective for editorial titling, book or magazine covers, branding wordmarks, and premium packaging where a classic-but-dramatic serif voice is desirable.
The overall tone is theatrical and confident, combining traditional bookish manners with a more expressive, show-card slant. It feels suited to statements—elegant but punchy—where the contrast and swash-like terminals add drama and momentum.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with heightened contrast and italic drive, adding flourish through tapered terminals and a slightly calligraphic finish. It aims to project authority and elegance while remaining legible and cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The numerals follow the same high-contrast logic and italicized stress, with curved figures showing strong thick–thin transitions and tapered ends. The ampersand is notably decorative, reinforcing the font’s display-leaning personality even in otherwise conventional text-serif construction.
