This is an italic serif with a lively, calligraphic construction and gently flared stroke endings that broaden into wedge-like terminals. The overall width is generous, with open counters and a smooth, forward-leaning rhythm that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures. Strokes are mostly even in weight, with subtle modulation that reads as pen-influenced rather than high-contrast, and the curves are clean and slightly taut. Serifs are not blocky; instead they taper and flare, giving corners and joins a sharpened, chiseled finish.
It performs best in editorial settings where an italic voice is part of the typographic palette—magazine features, pull quotes, and high-end marketing copy. The wide proportions and open forms also make it a good fit for titles, book covers, and display lines where elegance and motion are desired.
The tone feels literary and editorial, combining classic serif cues with a quick, energetic slant. It conveys refinement without stiffness, suggesting a voice that is confident, articulate, and slightly dramatic—well suited to expressive typography that still needs to read as serious and polished.
The design appears intended to deliver an italic serif with a distinctly flared, pen-informed finish—more expressive than a neutral text italic, but still disciplined enough for polished publishing and brand applications. The goal seems to be combining classic serif authority with a contemporary, energetic cadence.
Capitals show a crisp, formal presence with controlled curves and pointed terminals, while the lowercase maintains strong readability through open shapes and clear internal space. Numerals are similarly italicized and coherent with the text, keeping the same flared finishing and forward motion.
