A high-contrast italic serif with sculpted, flared stroke endings and crisp triangular serifs. The letterforms lean assertively, with tapered entry/exit strokes and a calligraphic rhythm that alternates thick verticals against hairline joins. Counters are compact and well-shaped, and curves show pronounced thick–thin transitions, especially in C, S, and the numerals. Lowercase features single-storey a and g, narrow joins, and lively, blade-like terminals that reinforce a refined, engraved feel.
Best suited to large sizes where the hairlines and flared terminals can shine—magazine headlines, editorial decks, cover lines, posters, and luxury-oriented branding. It can also work for short, high-impact passages such as pull quotes, titles, and event stationery, rather than long-form body text.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, balancing classic bookish heritage with a fashion-forward sharpness. Its strong slant and bright hairlines add energy and sophistication, reading as upscale, ceremonial, and a little theatrical.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined italic voice with dramatic contrast and expressive, flared finishing—aimed at display typography that feels premium and historically informed while staying sharp and contemporary.
Spacing and proportions feel tuned for display: capitals are stately and wide enough to breathe, while the italic lowercase introduces a more variable, gestural texture across words. Numerals maintain the same contrast and sharp finishing, making them visually consistent in headings and pull quotes.
