A slanted, high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a distinctly calligraphic rhythm. Stems and joins show flared, tapering behavior that produces sharp, wedge-like terminals and bracketed serifs rather than blunt slabs. The overall color is strong and dark, with compact counters and crisp apertures that keep the letters punchy at display sizes. Uppercase forms feel steady and sculpted, while the lowercase shows more motion in the curves and entry/exit strokes, reinforcing the italic flow across words.
Best suited to headlines, magazine-style typography, and other display settings where its contrast and slanted motion can be appreciated. It can work for short subheads or pull quotes, and it’s a strong choice for branding that wants a classic serif voice with extra energy and bite.
The font reads as dramatic and cultivated, with a confident, slightly theatrical tone. Its sharp terminals and energetic slant give it a sense of speed and emphasis, while the serif construction keeps it grounded in a traditional, editorial register.
The design appears intended to blend a traditional serif foundation with a more expressive, flared-stroke italic character. It emphasizes impact and elegance through contrast, tapering terminals, and a forward-leaning stance that heightens emphasis in larger text.
Numerals follow the same angled, high-contrast logic and appear designed to stand out in headings. Diagonal stress and tapered stroke endings create a lively texture in running lines, so spacing and rhythm feel driven by gesture rather than strict geometric uniformity.
