This typeface is a slanted serif with strong thick–thin modulation and a distinctly calligraphic construction. Serifs are bracketed and often sharpen into wedge-like endings, with occasional ball terminals and tapered stroke finishes that emphasize directionality. The uppercase has compact, sturdy proportions with crisp diagonals and a forward-leaning stance, while the lowercase shows more fluid joining logic and pronounced entry/exit strokes, especially in letters like a, f, g, y, and z. Numerals appear oldstyle, with varying heights and descenders that integrate with the text rhythm rather than sitting on a uniform lining height.
It is well suited to display and short-to-medium text where an italic serif is intended as the primary voice—such as headlines, decks, pull quotes, and elegant book or magazine titling. It can also work for formal announcements and invitations where a traditional, emphatic tone is desired.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, with an energetic italic voice that feels emphatic and slightly theatrical. It suggests cultivated formality—appropriate for classic editorial settings—while the assertive contrast and sharp terminals add a sense of drama and motion.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional serif foundation with a strong italic personality—combining classical proportions with pronounced contrast and calligraphic detailing to deliver emphasis, elegance, and forward motion in setting.
Curves are tight and controlled, and counters are moderately open, helping maintain clarity despite the heavy contrast. The slant is consistent and the stroke endings frequently taper, creating a lively baseline rhythm, particularly in mixed-case and word settings.
