A slanted serif with pronounced, flared stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that broaden out from the stems. The letterforms show a calligraphic rhythm: curves are full and taut, joins are smooth, and terminals often finish with tapered, angled cuts. Contrast is moderate, with heavier main strokes and finer connecting strokes that stay sturdy at text sizes. Proportions feel traditional, with rounded bowls and slightly condensed internal counters, while the overall spacing remains even and text-friendly.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, feature decks, pull quotes, and book or magazine typography where an assertive italic voice is desired. It can also support branding applications that need a refined, traditional presence with visible movement and personality.
The tone is classic and editorial, combining a traditional bookish voice with a forward-leaning sense of motion. Its sharp, flared endings and strong diagonals add confidence and a slightly dramatic flavor without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust italic serif with classical proportions and flared finishing strokes, aiming for strong readability while keeping a distinctly written, energetic texture in longer lines.
Capitals read as stately and stable, while the lowercase introduces more written character through angled terminals and energetic entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same italicized, calligraphic logic, keeping a cohesive texture in mixed text.
