A slanted, high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered stroke endings and pronounced thick–thin transitions. The letterforms show a calligraphic construction: curved joins, lively diagonals, and bracketed serif-like flares that sharpen into points on many terminals. Proportions feel moderately condensed in rhythm with relatively narrow counters, giving the face a dense, emphatic color. Curves and diagonals (notably in rounds and Vs/Ws) carry a sweeping momentum, while the figures and capitals maintain clear, structured silhouettes.
This font is best suited to display applications such as headlines, magazine features, posters, and book covers where its sharp contrast and italic energy can be appreciated. It can work for short pull quotes or subheads that need a refined, attention-grabbing voice, especially in high-end or dramatic layouts.
The overall tone is assertive and theatrical, combining a classical, old-world elegance with a punchy, headline-ready intensity. Its sharp terminals and strong contrast create a sense of prestige and urgency that reads as editorial and fashion-forward rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-contrast italic voice with a flared, calligraphic finish—balancing traditional serif structure with sharper, more performative terminals for impact in display typography.
In text, the pronounced slant and contrast produce a vivid texture with strong directional flow. The design favors expressive terminals and dynamic curves, which enhances personality at display sizes and can feel visually busy when set tightly or very small.
