A sharply slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. Strokes show a calligraphic, pen-like construction: thick verticals and diagonals are paired with hairline joins, with terminals that taper into pointed beaks and subtle hooks. The capitals are broad and sculptural with strong internal contrast, while the lowercase is more fluid, featuring lively entry strokes, occasional swash-like descenders, and a compact, rounded rhythm. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with curving spines and tapered ends that keep the set cohesive in display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and other prominent typography where the contrast and italic energy can be appreciated. It works well for magazine/editorial layouts, poster titles, branding wordmarks, and book or album covers that call for a classic yet attention-grabbing serif.
The overall tone is theatrical and authoritative, combining old-style elegance with a sense of motion and flourish. Its assertive contrast and pronounced slant read as stylish and expressive, lending a distinctly editorial, high-impact character.
The design appears intended as a display-leaning italic serif that blends traditional serif structure with heightened contrast and calligraphic flair, prioritizing elegance and impact over quiet, text-first neutrality.
Spacing appears on the tight side in the sample text, and the strong diagonals and tapered joins create a busy texture at smaller sizes. The design’s distinctive terminals and angled stress give it a recognizable voice, especially in capitals and in letters with curved strokes and descenders.
