A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, tapered serifs and pronounced stroke modulation. The forms show a rightward slant and a lively, calligraphic rhythm, with wedge-like entry/exit terminals and crisp, triangular feet. Uppercase proportions feel classically grounded, while the lowercase has compact counters and slightly swelling curves that emphasize the diagonal stress. Numerals follow the same italic construction, with curving spines and elegant joins that keep the texture consistent in running text.
Well-suited to magazines, book typography, and other editorial layouts where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, introductions, or display lines. It can also work for refined branding and invitations where a classic, formal tone is desired, especially at medium to larger sizes where the contrast and sharp serifs can breathe.
The overall tone is polished and literary, projecting a sense of tradition and editorial authority. Its energetic italic movement adds flourish without becoming ornamental, giving it a confident, cultured voice suited to formal or narrative settings.
Designed to provide a conventional serif italic with a strong typographic presence: high contrast for elegance, brisk terminals for crispness, and a controlled calligraphic slant for expressive emphasis in text and display.
In text, the font builds a strong dark color due to the contrast and tight interior spaces, while the sharp terminals and bracketing keep edges crisp. The italic angle and varied curve widths create a dynamic line flow that reads as deliberately expressive rather than purely utilitarian.
