This typeface is an italic serif with a strongly calligraphic construction and flared, wedge-like stroke endings. Strokes show clear modulation with weight concentrating through the main diagonals and thinning into sharp terminals, giving letters a lively, swept rhythm. Serifs are tapered and often triangular, with noticeable bracketing on key joins, and the overall silhouette feels energetic rather than static. Proportions lean narrow-to-moderate with a tall lowercase presence, while capitals are sculpted and slightly compact, maintaining a consistent forward slant and a crisp, high-contrast impression in larger sizes.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, magazine features, and promotional typography where expressive italic emphasis is desired. It can add authority and flair to branding, packaging, and event materials, particularly when set large or with generous spacing to let the sharp terminals and stroke modulation show.
The overall tone is theatrical and refined, blending classic bookish cues with a more emphatic, contemporary punch. Its sharp terminals and brisk italic motion create a sense of momentum, making the text feel confident, stylish, and slightly formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, calligraphy-informed italic voice that combines traditional serif cues with flared, sculpted endings for added drama. Its consistent slant, energetic rhythm, and pronounced terminals suggest a focus on attention-grabbing display use while retaining enough structure for short passages.
Counters tend to stay open despite the heavy strokes, and many letters finish with decisive, blade-like terminals that read clearly at display sizes. Numerals follow the same slanted, flared logic, with a traditional feel and strong diagonals that reinforce the font’s motion.
