A slanted text serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and strongly bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a calligraphic, slightly swelling stroke logic with teardrop-like terminals and rounded joins that keep the texture lively despite the weight. Proportions are generous, with wide capitals and open counters; the lowercase maintains an even, readable rhythm with subtly varied widths and a gently arched baseline feel. Numerals are sturdy and traditional, with clear contrast and noticeable curvature in bowls and tails.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and other display-to-text roles where a rich, traditional serif voice is desired. It can work well for magazine/editorial branding, book covers, and premium packaging, especially when you want a classic feel with extra emphasis and motion from the slant.
The overall tone is confident and editorial, combining classic bookish manners with a more theatrical, energetic slant. It feels established and authoritative, yet the curved details and lively contrast add warmth and a hint of vintage sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading experience with heightened contrast and a more expressive italic stance. It prioritizes strong presence and a refined, print-like character while keeping counters open and rhythms steady for set text and prominent titling.
In text, the strong contrast and bold presence create a dark color on the page, making word shapes pop quickly. The italic angle is consistent, and the serif bracketing plus rounded terminals help prevent the design from feeling brittle at larger sizes.
