A calligraphic italic with pronounced stroke contrast and sharp, pen-like terminals. The letterforms are compact and slightly narrow, with a lively rightward slant and subtly irregular widths that feel hand-driven. Curves are pinched and occasionally angular, with teardrop joins and wedge-like entry/exit strokes that create a rhythmic, flickering texture across words. Ascenders are prominent while the lowercase body stays relatively small, helping the capitals and extenders stand out with occasional swash-like gestures.
Best suited for display settings such as book or chapter titles, event collateral, invitations, posters, and brand marks that benefit from a handcrafted, classic voice. It can also work for short pull quotes or labels where texture and personality are desired, especially at moderate-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is formal and theatrical, evoking classic manuscript or period display lettering. Its crisp contrast and flourished details give it a slightly gothic-leaning elegance, suited to expressive, story-forward messaging rather than neutral body copy.
Designed to mimic a broad-nib or pointed-pen calligraphic hand in a formal, unconnected style, prioritizing expressive contrast and decorative movement. The intent appears to be strong character and historical flavor, with a distinctive rhythm for headline typography.
Capitals are especially stylized and decorative, while lowercase remains more compact and quick, creating a noticeable hierarchy within mixed-case text. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic with angled strokes and sharp terminals, maintaining stylistic continuity in headings or dated content.
