This typeface is an italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Strokes taper and flare into bracketed serif-like terminals rather than ending bluntly, giving the contours a sculpted, ink-driven feel. The slant is steady and relatively assertive, with compact, slightly narrow forms in the lowercase and more expansive, formal capitals. Curves are clean and high-contrast, and the overall texture alternates between sharp hairlines and weighty main strokes for a crisp page color.
It works especially well for editorial typography such as magazine headlines, section openers, pull quotes, and book titling where an expressive italic voice is desired. Its strong contrast and flared terminals also suit refined branding accents and packaging when used at display sizes.
The tone is cultured and literary, evoking classical book typography with a slightly theatrical, expressive edge. It reads as polished and traditional, suggesting refinement and authority while still feeling dynamic due to the energetic italic construction.
The design appears intended to deliver a classical italic voice with heightened contrast and flared, calligraphy-informed endings, balancing traditional serif formality with a more animated, expressive flow for standout text.
The figures follow the same italic, high-contrast logic as the letters, with clear shaping and elegant stress. In text, the strong modulation and sharp joins create a vivid, high-definition sparkle that favors generous sizes and comfortable spacing.
