A very weighty serif with pronounced contrast and a consistent rightward slant. Strokes show calligraphic modulation, with thick verticals and tapered hairlines that resolve into bracketed, sometimes slightly flared serifs. Counters are relatively compact for the weight, while terminals and joins are softly sculpted, giving the forms a carved, ink-on-paper feel. The rhythm is energetic and irregular in a controlled way, with noticeable shape nuance across letters (especially in diagonals and curves) that keeps text from feeling mechanical.
Best suited to headlines, cover lines, and other large-size settings where its contrast and sculpted serifs can be appreciated. It can work for short editorial decks, branding, and packaging where a traditional yet energetic serif voice is desired, but will feel heavy for dense body copy.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, leaning toward a vintage editorial voice rather than a neutral book face. Its slanted, high-contrast construction reads as confident and a bit flamboyant, evoking classic display typography and expressive headline traditions.
The design appears intended to combine conventional serif structure with a more expressive, calligraphic modulation—delivering a classic, authoritative silhouette with heightened drama for display-forward typography.
Uppercase forms appear sturdy and formal with generous serif presence, while lowercase introduces more personality through varied terminal treatments and slightly more animated curves. Numerals share the same heavy, sculpted build, with rounded shapes and strong top/bottom emphasis that helps them stand up in large sizes.
