A robust italic serif with flared, wedge-like terminals and gently swelling stems that create a sculpted, chiseled texture. The letterforms show a calligraphic logic: diagonals and curves taper into sharp points, while verticals feel slightly modulated and organically shaped. Uppercase forms are wide and assertive with prominent triangular serifs, and the lowercase carries a lively italic rhythm with compact counters and energetic joins. Figures are sturdy and expressive, with angled cuts and pointed terminals that match the overall wedge-seriffed language.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, book jackets, and other editorial settings where an expressive italic can carry personality. It also fits branding and packaging that want a traditional foundation with sharper, more dynamic detailing. In longer passages it will create a strong, dark texture, making it most comfortable when given generous size and spacing.
The tone is classic and editorial, combining a traditional bookish sensibility with a more theatrical, poster-ready punch. Its strong italic movement and sharp terminal work lend a dynamic, slightly vintage flavor that reads as confident and expressive rather than neutral.
The font appears designed to merge classical serif proportions with flared, wedge-terminal detailing and a vigorous italic stance, aiming for high impact while retaining an editorial, heritage-minded character.
The design maintains consistent flare and taper across caps, lowercase, and numerals, producing a distinctive dark color in text. The italic slant is pronounced enough to feel intentional and lively, while the serif shaping stays crisp and angular, enhancing impact in display sizes.
