A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, wedge-like bracketed serifs and a pronounced calligraphic rhythm. Strokes show strong thick–thin transitions and an oblique stress, with tapered joins and pointed terminals that give the forms a crisp, engraved feel. The italic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, with moderate ascenders and descenders and a slightly lively, uneven color typical of calligraphy-influenced italics. Spacing appears generous enough for text, while the letterforms retain distinctive, sculpted details.
Works well for editorial typography such as magazine features, essays, and book interiors where an italic voice is needed for emphasis or flavor. It also suits refined display applications—titles, pull quotes, invitations, and formal announcements—where the high contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, with a touch of theatrical flair from the strong contrast and energetic italic slant. It reads as bookish and elegant rather than casual, suggesting editorial seriousness and a heritage aesthetic.
The design appears intended to provide a classic italic companion with pronounced calligraphic character and a polished, traditional serif structure. Its strong contrast and crisp terminals aim to deliver elegance and emphasis without departing from conventional text-serif expectations.
Capitals are stately and slightly narrow in impression, pairing well with the more animated lowercase. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, helping mixed text maintain a cohesive texture. The pointed, sweeping terminals and sharp serifs make the face feel crisp at display sizes while remaining plausible for shorter text settings.
