A condensed serif italic with energetic, calligraphic construction and noticeable tapering through strokes. Serifs are small and bracketed, often flaring into pointed terminals that give the outlines a slightly sharpened, decorative finish. Curves are narrow and upright-leaning with a consistent rightward slant, and many letters show subtly uneven stroke transitions that feel pen-driven rather than purely geometric. The lowercase is compact with relatively tall ascenders and deep, lively descenders, while figures follow the same narrow, slanted rhythm with curled hooks and tapered ends.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short display settings where the condensed italic silhouette can add speed and flair. It can work well on posters, book covers, and branding or packaging that wants a classic, showcard-like feel, especially when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing.
The overall tone feels vintage and theatrical, suggesting classic display typography with a touch of whimsy. Its narrow, animated shapes read as stylish and expressive rather than neutral, lending a slightly dramatic, poster-like character.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, attention-grabbing serif italic with a pen-influenced feel, combining traditional serif cues with decorative terminals for a distinctive display voice.
Spacing appears tight and the forms are highly vertical, so the texture becomes dense and stripe-like in paragraphs. The design relies on distinctive terminals and italic momentum for personality, which will be most apparent at larger sizes and in shorter runs of text.
