A slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The strokes show a calligraphic, pen-driven rhythm: heavy shaded stems, fine hairlines, and slightly tapered joins that keep counters open despite the weight. Terminals often finish in small balls or teardrops, and curves are drawn with a lively, slightly uneven energy that reads as intentional rather than mechanical. Proportions lean traditional with moderate x-height, generous capitals, and slightly compact lowercase forms that stay well knit in text.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine features, and book or poster typography where contrast and italic movement can be read clearly. It can also support premium branding and packaging when used at display sizes, especially for short phrases, titles, and pull quotes.
The overall tone is refined and expressive, combining classical bookish cues with a theatrical, display-forward presence. It feels formal and literary, with enough flourish to suggest luxury, heritage, or headline drama rather than neutral utility.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif structure with an emphatic italic character—balancing traditional proportions with heightened contrast and ornamental terminals for added personality and impact.
In the grid, the figures and capitals carry strong silhouettes that hold up well at larger sizes, while the italic slant and high contrast create a shimmering texture in longer lines. The angularity in diagonals and the assertive serifs give the face a confident, slightly incisive voice.
