A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines, weighty main strokes, and pronounced diagonal stress. Serifs are fine and wedge-like with subtle bracketing, and many terminals finish in pointed, calligraphic cuts. Proportions lean slightly condensed in the capitals with generous curves, while the lowercase shows classic italic construction with a single-storey a and g, lively entry strokes, and a flowing rhythm. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic with crisp transitions and delicate joins.
Well suited to magazine headlines, pull quotes, and display typography where its contrast and italic cadence can be showcased. It can also support refined packaging, invitations, and book-jacket titling when paired with a quieter companion for long-form text.
The overall tone is polished and cultivated, with an editorial sophistication that reads as traditional and premium. Its energetic slant and calligraphic detailing add a sense of motion and ceremony, balancing authority with elegance.
Likely intended as a conventional, text-rooted italic with elevated contrast for elegant display and editorial settings. The calligraphic terminals and crisp serifs suggest a focus on traditional typographic flavor and expressive emphasis rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design relies on strong thick–thin modulation, so spacing and counters feel most comfortable at text sizes where hairlines remain visible. The italic angle is assertive, and the rhythm of repeating diagonals gives paragraphs a distinctly classical texture.
