A right-leaning serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a distinctly sculpted, flared stroke finishing. Serifs are wedge-like and bracketed, with tapered terminals that feel inked rather than purely geometric. Uppercase forms are compact and stately with crisp joins and sharp apexes, while the lowercase shows lively, calligraphic movement with curved entry/exit strokes and soft, rounded counters. Overall rhythm is energetic and slightly condensed by the forward slant, giving lines of text a continuous, flowing texture.
This font is well suited to headlines, magazine features, book and album covers, and premium packaging where a confident, elegant voice is needed. It can also work for branding and logotypes that benefit from a classic serif foundation with expressive italic movement.
The tone is theatrical and refined—suited to classic, literary settings but with enough flourish to feel expressive and contemporary. Its strong contrast and sweeping curves create a sense of drama and prestige, evoking high-end editorial typography and formal announcements.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened motion and drama, using flared, tapered endings and strong contrast to create impact. It prioritizes expressive rhythm and a luxurious page color for display-oriented typography.
The figures follow the same italicized, high-contrast logic, with open curves and tapered endings that keep them visually consistent with the letters. In text, the face produces a dark, luxurious color with noticeable sparkle from the contrast and pointed terminals, favoring display sizes and short passages over dense small text.
