A high-contrast italic serif with sweeping, calligraphic motion and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes taper into sharp, flared terminals and bracketed serifs, giving the letterforms a carved, blade-like finish. Counters are compact and round, joins are smooth and slightly swelling, and the overall rhythm leans forward with energetic diagonals and strong entry/exit strokes. The texture on the page is dense and punchy, with tight apertures and sturdy vertical masses balanced by hairline connections and tapered cross strokes.
Best suited for headlines, magazine-style editorial typography, and brand identities that need a sophisticated, high-impact italic voice. It also fits poster titling and premium packaging where the sharp contrast and flared terminals can carry personality and drama at display sizes.
The font reads as assertive and refined, combining a traditional italic voice with a more theatrical, display-driven intensity. Its sharp tapers and flared endings add a sense of luxury and urgency, suited to attention-grabbing typographic moments rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant italic display serif with a strong calligraphic backbone and sculpted, flaring stroke endings. It prioritizes expressive contrast, forward motion, and a distinctive silhouette for impactful, style-led composition.
Uppercase forms feel emblematic and formal, while the lowercase shows more of the calligraphic character in its terminals and curvature. Numerals are similarly slanted and high-contrast, with crisp finishing strokes that keep them visually consistent with the letters. At larger sizes the hairlines and pointed terminals become a defining feature of the style.
