A slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and sculpted, flaring stroke endings that give the letters a carved, slightly calligraphic feel. Stems and diagonals taper into sharp terminals, with bracketed serifs and wedge-like feet that create crisp entry and exit strokes. Proportions are moderately condensed with lively italic rhythm; rounds are compact and counters are relatively tight, producing a dense, emphatic texture in text. Numerals and capitals show strong vertical stress and confident weight distribution, while lowercase forms include energetic curves and a noticeable slant that keeps lines moving forward.
Best suited for headlines, pull quotes, and short-to-medium editorial text where the contrast and sculpted terminals can be appreciated. It can add a premium, classic tone to branding and packaging, and works well for book covers or cultural/event materials that benefit from a dramatic italic voice.
The overall tone is traditional and polished, with a theatrical edge created by the sharp terminals and high contrast. It feels literary and editorial—suited to settings that want elegance and authority while still showing motion and personality.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif structure with a dynamic italic posture and flared, chiseled terminals, aiming for a refined display presence that still performs in readable settings. The emphasis on contrast, sharp finishing, and energetic rhythm suggests a focus on expressive, high-impact typography.
In longer passages the heavy strokes and narrow counters can create a dark color, especially at smaller sizes, while the italic angle and flared endings remain highly distinctive. The ampersand and several lowercase forms show expressive shaping that reads as intentionally stylized rather than purely utilitarian.
