A bold, italic serif with strongly bracketed wedge-like serifs and a pronounced rightward slant. Strokes show a gently calligraphic modulation, with rounded joins and occasional teardrop or ball-like terminals in the lowercase and figures. Proportions are sturdy and slightly condensed in places, with generous curves and a steady, energetic rhythm that holds up well at display sizes while remaining coherent in text settings. Numerals are weighty and oldstyle-leaning in feel, with curved forms and distinct stroke endings that match the letterforms.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and subheads where a strong italic voice is needed. It can also support book-cover titling and formal promotional materials that benefit from a classic serif presence with extra emphasis and motion.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, combining the authority of a book serif with an assertive, headline-ready presence. Its slanted posture and robust detailing add warmth and momentum, suggesting established credibility rather than minimalism.
The design appears intended to provide a traditional serif voice in a bold italic style—built for emphasis, hierarchy, and expressive reading rhythm without departing from conventional text-serif expectations.
Uppercase forms feel solid and ceremonial, while the lowercase introduces more movement through rounded terminals and lively italic construction. The contrast and serif shaping are consistent across letters and numerals, giving the face a cohesive, classic texture in paragraphs.
