A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced forward slant and crisp, tapered stroke endings. Serifs are bracketed and sharp, with wedge-like entry and exit strokes that give many forms a subtly calligraphic, pen-cut feel. The glyphs show narrow interior apertures and a lively rhythm, with diagonals and curves tightening into thin hairlines and swelling quickly into sturdy stems. Lowercase forms are compact and slightly condensed in feel, while capitals are upright in structure but consistently slanted to match the italic angle, producing a coherent, energetic texture in text.
Works well for editorial headlines, pull quotes, and book or magazine typography where an italic serif can provide emphasis with a refined finish. It can also serve for short-to-medium passages where a lively, high-contrast texture is desired, and for branding applications that benefit from a classic, literary tone.
The overall tone is traditional and polished, evoking book typography and editorial styling rather than casual or utilitarian settings. Its slanted, high-contrast forms convey motion and emphasis, lending an expressive, rhetorical flavor suited to quoted material, headings, and formal voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional italic text serif with enhanced contrast and crisp detailing, aiming to balance readability with a distinctive, energetic slant. Its controlled proportions and consistent serif treatment suggest an emphasis on elegant emphasis—an italic that can carry both display moments and continuous text with a traditional voice.
Figures follow the same italic energy and contrast, with distinctive angled terminals and squared-off moments that create a slightly sharp, engraved impression. Spacing appears tuned for continuous reading, with a steady baseline and consistent slant alignment across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
