This typeface is a slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered terminals. Serifs appear wedge-like and often subtly bracketed, with a calligraphic flow that produces lively entry and exit strokes. Counters are relatively open, while joins and curves show crisp transitions that emphasize the contrast. The italic structure is assertive and slightly compact in places, giving words a dynamic, forward-leaning rhythm; figures follow the same high-contrast, oldstyle-influenced pattern with elegant curves and tapered ends.
It performs best where contrast and italic energy are assets—magazine headlines, editorial decks, book and album covers, and brand statements that want a classic but expressive serif. It can also work for short, high-impact text blocks and pull quotes where the lively rhythm remains comfortable at display sizes.
The overall tone feels editorial and classical, with a refined, high-fashion drama. Its slanted, high-contrast construction reads as confident and expressive rather than purely utilitarian, lending a literary, upscale voice to headings and short passages.
The design intention appears to be a conventional serif voice infused with a bold, calligraphic italic character: high-contrast shapes, tapered serifs, and sculpted curves that create an elegant yet attention-getting texture for display typography.
Diagonal stress is noticeable in rounded letters, and several glyphs show distinctive, slightly flourished terminals that add personality without tipping into script. The texture on a line is energetic, with strong vertical accents and sharp highlights where thin strokes narrow to hairlines.
