A right-leaning serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sculpted, bracketed serifs. Strokes show a calligraphic logic, with tapered terminals and subtle flaring at joins that create a lively, slightly “inked” texture. Uppercase forms feel broad and steady, while the lowercase is more fluid, with rounded bowls, angled stress, and a rhythmic alternation of thick stems and hairline links. Numerals follow the same italicized, high-contrast construction, with clear curves and sharp entry/exit strokes that keep the set visually cohesive in text.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and long-form reading where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, introductions, pull quotes, or sidebars. At larger sizes it can also serve as a sophisticated headline or display italic, delivering a classic, high-contrast presence without feeling ornamental.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, with a refined, bookish elegance that still reads assertive due to its strong contrast and forward motion. It evokes printed literature and magazine typography, balancing formality with a touch of expressive, calligraphic energy.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif italic with heightened contrast and a calligraphic finish, aiming to provide an expressive yet disciplined companion for reading-oriented typography. Its proportions and stroke rhythm prioritize continuity and elegance, suggesting use in structured, content-heavy layouts.
The italic slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing strong horizontal flow in words. Serifs are not delicate hairlines; they have enough body and curvature to remain crisp at display sizes, while the internal counters stay open enough to maintain clarity in continuous text.
