A high-contrast italic serif with tapered, flared stroke endings and sharply chiseled terminals. The letterforms show a calligraphic construction: stems lean with a consistent rightward angle, curves transition quickly from thick to hairline, and joins are clean and decisive. Serifs read as bracketed and wedge-like rather than slabby, with pointed entry/exit strokes on many characters. Proportions are moderately compact with a steady rhythm, while capitals feel slightly more expansive and sculpted for display-like presence. Numerals follow the same contrast and italic flow, with crisp serifs and lively curvature that keeps the set cohesive in text.
Best suited to editorial settings such as magazines, features, and pull quotes, as well as book titling and sophisticated headlines where the italic energy is an advantage. It can also work for formal invitations and brand statements that benefit from a refined, classic voice, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, with a fashion/editorial sophistication and a hint of drama from the sharp hairlines and steep italic motion. It suggests formality and craft, closer to printed literature and luxury branding than utilitarian UI typography.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary take on calligraphic italic serifs, combining pronounced contrast with flared, sculpted stroke endings for a distinctive and upscale texture. The intent reads as expressive and premium, prioritizing elegance and typographic character over neutrality.
In the text sample the italic angle and strong thick–thin modulation create a pronounced texture and forward momentum, especially in mixed-case lines. Hairlines become delicate at larger sizes, while the darker main strokes and flared endings keep word shapes clear and structured.
