A robust italic serif with bracketed serifs and a noticeably calligraphic, oldstyle construction. Strokes show a clear diagonal stress, with rounded joins and gently flared terminals that keep the heavy weight from feeling blunt. Proportions are slightly variable across letters, with generous curves in C/G/S and sturdy verticals that maintain a steady, readable rhythm. Numerals are bold and full, with traditional shapes and prominent serifs that match the text face.
Well-suited to book and magazine typography where a strong italic is needed for emphasis, pull quotes, or subheads. Its weight and traditional detailing also make it effective for editorial headlines, formal invitations, and premium packaging or labeling that benefits from a classic serif voice.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, projecting confidence and tradition with an energetic italic slant. It reads as literary and authoritative rather than minimalist, with enough warmth in the curves to feel inviting in longer passages.
Designed to deliver a traditional text-serif experience in a bold, fully italic style, balancing strong presence with readable, humanist forms. The detailing suggests an intention to evoke established print typography while remaining sturdy and high-impact in display sizes.
Italic forms are fully drawn rather than mechanically slanted, with distinctive entry/exit strokes and a pronounced forward momentum. The lowercase shows a compact, sturdy texture, while capitals remain broad and emphatic, giving headings a strong, formal presence.
