A right-leaning serif with strong thick–thin contrast and crisp, bracketed serifs that taper into pointed terminals. The forms feel calligraphically driven: curves are full and springy, joins are smooth, and many letters show subtly flared strokes and teardrop-like endings. Proportions are generous with open counters and a broadly set rhythm, while capitals carry sculpted details (notably in Q, R, and W) that add display-level character without losing text discipline. Numerals are similarly energetic, with curving strokes and sharp, angled entry/exit points that keep the set lively at larger sizes.
Well suited to editorial headlines, book and magazine titling, and branded statements where a classic, elevated tone is desired. It can also work for pull quotes, invitations, and poster typography, particularly when set with ample line spacing to showcase its contrast and italic motion.
The overall tone is authoritative and old-world, with an editorial elegance that reads as literary and refined. Its energetic italic movement and sharp contrast add drama and a sense of crafted sophistication, evoking traditional print—book jackets, cultural institutions, and classic signage—rather than minimalist modernism.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened contrast and an italic, calligraphic energy—balancing refined readability with enough distinctive detailing to stand out in display settings.
Spacing appears intentionally roomy, contributing to a broad texture in lines of text. Several lowercase characters feature distinctive, slightly swashy terminals and a flowing baseline rhythm, giving the type a recognizably expressive voice even in short phrases.
