A strongly slanted serif italic with sharp, bracketed wedge serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The strokes show a clear calligraphic influence, with tapered terminals, energetic entry/exit strokes, and a lively diagonal rhythm across words. Uppercase forms are compact and authoritative, while the lowercase keeps a moderate x-height with elegant ascenders and descenders that add texture without becoming overly long. Overall spacing reads steady and traditional, with crisp counters and clear differentiation in key shapes like the two-storey-style forms implied by the bowl/terminal construction and the distinctive italic numerals.
This design suits editorial typography where an expressive italic is needed for emphasis, such as magazine features, book typography, pull quotes, and lead-ins. It also performs well in display sizes for titles and refined branding moments that benefit from a traditional, high-contrast serif voice.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone with a confident, dramatic slant. Its high-contrast italic voice feels refined and emphatic, suggesting tradition, credibility, and a touch of theatrical flair when set large.
The likely intention is to provide a classic italic companion with strong contrast and calligraphic energy—one that reads as traditional and credible while offering a bold, expressive texture for emphasis in text and display.
The italic angle is consistent and assertive, producing a strong forward motion in text. Numerals share the same calligraphic contrast and slanted posture, helping mixed text and figures feel cohesive in running settings.
