This typeface is a slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered terminals. Capitals are tall and slightly condensed, with crisp bracketed serifs and a forward-leaning, engraved-like rhythm. Lowercase shows compact forms with narrow apertures, a teardrop/ball-like ear on the g, and lively entry/exit strokes that suggest a calligraphic influence. Figures follow the same angled, contrasty construction, with curved strokes and small finishing flicks that keep the texture energetic in running text.
It works best for headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other display-to-short-text applications where its contrast and slanted rhythm can be appreciated. It can also serve in refined branding and packaging, and in book or magazine typography where a classic, high-style voice is desired.
The overall tone is poised and refined, leaning toward classic editorial elegance with a touch of drama. Its brisk angle and crisp finishes read as confident and formal, evoking traditional publishing and heritage branding rather than casual or utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with an italic-forward, calligraphic energy—balancing sharp, authoritative shapes with elegant movement. It prioritizes a polished, premium texture suited to curated editorial and brand contexts.
In paragraphs, the strong modulation and tight internal spaces create a dense, polished color that stands out on the page. The italic construction feels integral rather than merely oblique, with consistent stroke logic across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
