A high-contrast serif italic with a pronounced rightward slant and crisp, bracketed serifs. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation with diagonal stress, giving letters a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Capitals are sturdy and slightly wide with sharp wedge-like finishing, while lowercase forms are compact and fluid, with single-storey a and g and a long, descending f. Curves are smooth and taut, counters stay fairly open, and spacing feels designed for continuous reading rather than display-only impact.
This style is well suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and magazine settings where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, or headings within a classic serif system. It can also serve well in formal collateral such as invitations or programs where an elegant, traditional tone is desired.
The overall tone is traditional and refined, evoking bookish, editorial typography and a sense of established authority. Its energetic italic movement adds sophistication and emphasis without becoming flamboyant, making it feel poised and cultivated.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic that balances readability with expressive, calligraphy-derived motion. Its controlled contrast and traditional proportions suggest a role as a dependable companion for longer-form typography and typographic hierarchy.
The numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with clear differentiation and flowing curves that match the letterforms. Stroke endings tend toward sharp, pointed terminals, which increases the sense of precision and brightness on the page.
