A vigorous serif italic with pronounced thick–thin modulation and bracketed, wedge-like serifs. The letterforms show a strong rightward slant and a slightly expanded stance, with generous curves and tapered terminals that create a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Counters are open and the joins are crisp, while the overall texture stays dark and confident, especially in uppercase and numerals.
Well-suited for editorial headlines, book or magazine covers, and pull quotes where a strong italic voice is desired. It can also serve in short passages or lead-ins when you want emphasis with a traditional serif character, though its dark color and expressive motion suggest best results at larger sizes.
The tone feels classic and editorial, with a bold, dramatic flavor that reads as confident and slightly theatrical. Its energetic italic motion and high-contrast strokes evoke traditional book typography and headline styling rather than neutral UI text.
Designed to deliver a forceful, traditional serif italic look with a clear calligraphic influence—prioritizing expressive emphasis, high-contrast elegance, and a bold editorial presence over neutrality.
Uppercase forms appear sturdy and formal, while lowercase introduces more movement through curved entry/exit strokes and occasional swash-like terminals. Numerals carry the same italic stress and contrast, giving figures a stylish, display-friendly presence.
