A high-contrast serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a distinctly calligraphic construction. Thick verticals and tapered hairlines create sharp sparkle, while bracketed wedge-like serifs and angled terminals give the strokes a cut, chiseled finish. Proportions skew broad with generous bowls and sweeping curves; diagonals and joins are brisk and crisp rather than round and soft. The italics show lively entry/exit strokes and occasional swash-like terminals, producing an energetic rhythm in text while maintaining a consistent, classical serif skeleton.
Best suited for editorial headlines, cover lines, and pull quotes where its contrast and slanted energy can be appreciated. It also fits branding and packaging for premium or style-centric products, and works well for short subheads and titling where a refined, attention-grabbing serif is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and assertive, combining old-style sophistication with a contemporary, fashion-led edge. Its strong contrast and pronounced slant feel dramatic and premium, suited to headlines that want to signal refinement and confidence.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened contrast and an italic-forward, calligraphic flair. It prioritizes impact and elegance—creating a polished, upscale texture for display typography while remaining grounded in conventional serif letterforms.
Uppercase forms read stately with wide, open counters and emphatic serifs; the numerals and round letters (O, Q, 8, 9) show particularly strong thick–thin modulation that heightens the display character. In longer lines the texture remains crisp, but the sharp hairlines and tight joins make it feel more at home at larger sizes than in small, dense settings.
