A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and crisp, sculpted serifs. Thick stems and hairline connections create a lively rhythm, with bracketed, wedge-like terminals that sharpen many strokes and give the outlines a chiseled finish. Counters are relatively open for a display-leaning serif, and the forms show an oldstyle, calligraphic stress that’s especially visible in rounded letters and the numerals. Overall proportions feel generously set, with a slightly varied texture across glyphs that reads as intentional, drawing-style modulation rather than rigid uniformity.
Best suited to headlines, decks, and other short-to-medium display settings where its contrast and italic movement can be appreciated. It works well for magazine/editorial typography, book-cover titling, and refined branding that wants a classic serif voice with extra emphasis. Use with care in long passages or small sizes where delicate hairlines may lose presence.
The font conveys a polished, literary tone with a sense of drama and motion. Its sharp terminals and strong contrast feel formal and elegant, while the italic flow adds energy suited to expressive emphasis. The overall impression is classic and editorial—confident, cultured, and a bit theatrical.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant italic voice with strong contrast and a traditional serif foundation, optimized for expressive emphasis and high-impact typography. Its sharp terminals and calligraphic stress suggest a goal of combining classical bookish cues with a more dramatic, contemporary editorial finish.
At larger sizes the hairlines and pointed terminals become a defining feature, producing a crisp, high-end texture. In tighter settings, the combination of steep italic angle and sharp joins can create a busy rhythm, so spacing and size choices will strongly influence readability.
