A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and crisp thick–thin modulation reminiscent of pointed-pen influence. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, with sharp, tapered terminals that give strokes a polished bite. Counters are relatively open and the curves (notably in C, G, S, and the lowercase bowls) show controlled, slightly sprung tension. The lowercase features lively entry/exit strokes and a compact, readable x-height; italics are not merely slanted romans but fully drawn with calligraphic shaping. Numerals appear oldstyle, with varied heights and flowing forms that match the text’s rhythm.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors where an expressive italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or headings. It can also serve in refined branding and formal printed materials—programs, invitations, and packaging—where a classic, high-contrast italic serif adds distinction.
The overall tone is traditional and cultured, with an elegant, bookish presence. Its energetic italic movement feels expressive yet disciplined, suggesting sophistication rather than flamboyance. The combination of sharp contrast and refined detailing conveys formality and editorial authority.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional serif experience with a distinctly calligraphic italic personality, combining traditional proportions with high-contrast elegance. Its detailing and rhythm suggest a focus on comfortable reading at text sizes while retaining enough flair for prominent typographic moments.
The italic construction is emphasized by sweeping diagonals and tapered joins, producing a graceful forward momentum across words. Uppercase forms remain dignified and stable while still participating in the italic slant, making the font suitable for emphasized passages and display lines without losing a classical text-serif identity.
