A slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketed and sharp, with an overall calligraphic stroke flow that shows in the angled joins and the subtly swelling curves. Proportions lean generously spaced and slightly expansive, with open counters and a steady rhythm that stays readable despite the dramatic contrast. Numerals follow the same italicized, high-contrast logic, with delicate hairlines and stronger main strokes.
It suits editorial typography, book and magazine headings, pull quotes, and refined branding where a classic serif voice is desired. The strong contrast and italic posture make it especially effective for titles, introductions, and emphasis in longer texts, as well as formal materials like invitations and certificates.
The font reads as cultured and traditional, with a distinctly literary, editorial tone. Its brisk italic slant and sharp finishing details add energy and a sense of sophistication, evoking classic book typography and formal publishing.
The design appears intended to provide a traditional, publication-ready italic with elevated contrast and a clear calligraphic influence—aimed at delivering elegance and emphasis while retaining a controlled, consistent text rhythm.
Uppercase forms feel stately and slightly narrow-to-moderate in their internal spacing, while lowercase is more fluid and text-oriented, helping long lines maintain a comfortable texture. The design’s contrast and fine hairlines give it a polished look, but also make it visually assertive at larger sizes.
