A high-contrast serif with a distinctly italic, calligraphic construction. Strokes show strong thick–thin modulation with tapered joins and bracketed serifs that end in sharp, slightly flared terminals. The italics have a lively forward slant and a moderately compact rhythm, with lowercase forms that feel traditional and slightly wedge-driven (notably in shoulders and joins). Capitals are sturdy and upright in presence, pairing crisp horizontals and pronounced serifs with smoothly curved bowls; overall spacing reads even and text-ready while maintaining a sculpted, engraved quality. Numerals appear proportionally varied, with oldstyle-style movement and pronounced contrast that blends naturally with the lowercase texture.
Well suited for editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and long-form reading where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and packaging or branding applications that benefit from a classic, premium tone.
The tone is classic and authoritative, evoking book typography and traditional editorial settings. Its sharp serifs and pronounced contrast create a refined, slightly dramatic voice that feels established and literary rather than casual or contemporary.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, text-oriented serif with a more expressive italic that adds motion and emphasis. Its pronounced contrast, bracketed serifs, and traditional proportions suggest a focus on polished readability with an elevated, print-classic character.
The italic drawing emphasizes tapered entry/exit strokes and energetic curves, producing a dark, well-defined text color at display and subhead sizes. Counters remain open despite the weight, helping maintain legibility while preserving a distinctly formal texture.
