A slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. Capitals show sharp triangular serifs and tapered joins, while lowercase forms lean more calligraphic with rounded shoulders, occasional ball terminals (notably on r), and a two-storey g with a prominent ear. Curves are full and smooth, counters are relatively open, and spacing feels moderately tight in text, creating a dense, polished rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrasty, italicized construction with teardrop-like terminals and strong vertical stress.
Best suited for display and short-form text where its high-contrast italic voice can be appreciated—magazine headlines, book covers, section openers, pull quotes, and brand statements needing a classic yet forceful serif tone. It can also work for formal invitations or cultural posters where a traditional, expressive italic is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and refined, combining classical bookish cues with a slightly theatrical, high-contrast sparkle. Its italic angle and sharp serifs give it a sense of movement and urgency while remaining distinctly traditional and formal.
Likely designed to provide an emphatic, traditional serif italic for editorial and titling use, emphasizing contrast, sharp serif geometry, and a calligraphic flow. The goal appears to be a classic, authoritative presence with added drama and motion.
The design mixes crisp, angular serif endings in the capitals with softer, more pen-like detailing in the lowercase, producing a lively texture. In larger sizes the hairlines and terminals become a key part of the personality, while at smaller sizes the dense contrast reads as energetic and emphatic.
