A slanted slab-serif with broad proportions and a sturdy, regular-weight color. Strokes show moderate contrast and a distinctly angular, faceted construction, with corners often cut or chamfered rather than smoothly rounded. Serifs are bold and blocky, frequently with slight bracketing or wedge-like joins that give a carved, chiseled impression. Counters tend to be compact and irregularly polygonal in places (notably in rounded letters), and several joins show notch-like details that add texture without turning into full blackletter.
Best suited to display sizes such as headlines, posters, book covers, and editorial layouts where its angular slabs and slanted stance can be appreciated. It can also work for branding and packaging that aims for a historic or literary flavor, while longer text will benefit from generous sizing and spacing to keep the textured details from accumulating.
The overall tone feels vintage and bookish—evoking old printing, scholastic material, and historical signage. Its angular slab detailing adds a slightly rugged, handcrafted edge while remaining structured and readable, producing a confident, editorial voice rather than a playful one.
The design appears intended to merge a robust slab-serif foundation with a deliberately faceted, hand-cut finish, producing a historical, print-inspired italic that feels distinctive without sacrificing structure. The goal seems to be strong typographic presence and period character for attention-getting text.
The rhythm is lively due to uneven edge geometry and occasional notches at terminals and joins, which creates a subtle “engraved” sparkle in text. Numerals and capitals carry the same faceted treatment, helping headings and short lines retain a cohesive, period-leaning personality.
