A sculpted serif italic with pronounced stroke contrast and strongly tapered, wedge-like serifs that often flare from the stems. The letters show a calligraphic skeleton with lively diagonals, sharp internal joins, and crisp terminals that feel cut rather than rounded. Counters are moderately open, while joins and stroke endings create a rhythmic pattern of thick verticals against fine hairlines. The overall color on the page is dense and energetic, with noticeable italic momentum in both capitals and lowercase.
This font is best used for display roles such as headlines, cover titling, pull quotes, and brand marks where its contrast and flared serifs can be appreciated. It can also work for short bursts of text in editorial layouts when set with comfortable leading and size, but it is visually strongest in larger settings where the fine hairlines and sharp terminals remain clear.
The face conveys a confident, editorial sophistication—formal without feeling rigid. Its sharp contrast and flared details add drama and a slightly theatrical tone, making it feel suited to literature, fashion, and premium branding contexts.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif elegance with a more dynamic, calligraphic italic energy. By emphasizing contrast, wedge serifs, and sculpted joins, it aims to deliver a premium, attention-grabbing voice suitable for high-impact typography.
Capitals have broad, sweeping forms with decisive serif wedges, while the lowercase maintains a compact, assertive stance with a single-storey italic “a” and similarly cursive-leaning construction. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, angled logic and read as display-oriented, especially at larger sizes.
