This is a high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant, sharp hairlines, and fuller main strokes. Serifs read as tapered wedges with a subtly flared feeling at stroke ends, giving terminals a crisp, chiseled finish rather than blunt slabs. The rhythm is lively and slightly calligraphic, with diagonal stress evident in rounded letters and numerals. Uppercase forms are relatively narrow and poised, while the lowercase shows expressive joins and tapered entry/exit strokes; counters remain open and clean at text sizes.
It performs well in editorial typography—magazine features, book interiors, and pull quotes—where high-contrast italics add emphasis with elegance. It also suits branding and packaging that want a classic, premium feel, especially for short lines, titles, or highlighted phrases.
The overall tone is polished and bookish, mixing traditional editorial sophistication with a touch of italic energy. It feels formal without being rigid, suited to settings where a refined, cultured voice is desired.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional italic voice with contemporary crispness: strong contrast for sparkle, tapered wedge serifs for refinement, and a fluent, calligraphic rhythm for expressive emphasis in text and display.
The italic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and the contrast creates a bright, sparkling texture in paragraphs. Numerals and capitals maintain the same crisp wedge/flare detailing, supporting a cohesive typographic color in mixed content.
