A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and sharp, wedge-like bracketed serifs. Strokes show clear broad-nib influence: thick verticals and hairline joins, with tapered terminals and subtly teardrop-like finishes on some curves. The letterforms are slightly narrow and lively, with compact bowls, angled stress, and a rhythmic, calligraphic modulation that keeps counters open despite the contrast. Numerals follow the same italic construction, with elegant curves and distinct thick–thin transitions.
Well-suited for editorial settings such as magazines, book titling, and pull quotes where an authoritative italic voice is needed. It also fits premium branding and packaging that benefits from classic serif refinement, especially at display and headline sizes where the contrast and tapering can be appreciated.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, evoking book typography and established editorial design. Its energetic italic angle adds urgency and elegance, reading as sophisticated rather than decorative.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional text-serif italic with elevated calligraphic character—formal enough for literature and editorial work, yet expressive enough to function as a distinctive emphasis style in typographic systems.
The capitals feel dignified and slightly restrained, while the lowercase is more fluid, with noticeable entry/exit strokes and expressive joins that emphasize motion. At larger sizes the fine hairlines and tapered details become a defining feature, lending a crisp, engraved-like finish.
