This typeface is a slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Serifs are clearly bracketed and often wedge-like, with a slightly calligraphic construction that gives strokes a lively, forward rhythm. Proportions feel moderately wide with generous curves, and the lowercase shows rounded forms and a flowing italic skeleton, while capitals remain structured and authoritative. Numerals follow the same contrasty, serifed treatment and read as traditional lining figures with distinct silhouettes.
Well suited to magazine and book settings where an italic serif voice is desired for emphasis, subheads, or display passages. It also fits branding and packaging that call for a classic, premium tone, and works effectively in invitations, announcements, and pull quotes where its contrast and movement can be showcased at larger sizes.
Overall tone is classic and refined, evoking editorial and bookish traditions with a touch of theatrical flourish. The energetic slant and sharp terminals add drama and motion, making it feel both sophisticated and expressive rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with a distinctly italic, calligraphic energy—balancing traditional letterforms with sharper, more expressive terminals to create a refined but attention-getting texture.
Contrast is strong enough that fine hairlines and joins become a key part of the texture, especially in smaller counters and at tight spacing. The italic angle is consistent across cases, and the design rewards generous leading and careful tracking to keep the rhythm open and the details clear.
