A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced calligraphic construction and a crisp, carved finish. Strokes taper into sharp, bracketed serifs, with thin hairlines and weighty main stems that create a lively light–dark rhythm. The italic angle is consistent, with flowing entry/exit strokes on many lowercase forms and slightly cupped terminals that keep counters open despite the contrast. Proportions read as traditional, with moderate ascenders/descenders and figures that follow the same slanted, serifed logic for a cohesive texture in text.
Well suited to editorial and book settings where an italic with presence is needed—introductions, emphasis, quotations, and refined feature typography. It can also serve in short headlines or display lines where its contrast and sharp serifs can read as intentional and polished.
The overall tone is classical and cultivated, leaning toward literary and editorial sophistication. Its italic voice feels expressive without becoming decorative, suggesting formality, tradition, and a touch of old-world elegance.
The design appears intended as a traditional, text-oriented italic that combines classical serif structure with a distinctly calligraphic stroke flow. Its contrast, tapering, and crisp terminals aim to deliver elegance and emphasis while still supporting continuous reading.
At text sizes the strong contrast and sharp detailing give the line a sparkling, energetic texture, while the steady slant and consistent serif treatment help maintain readability. The italic numerals and capitals carry the same sculpted, engraved quality, making mixed-case settings feel unified.
