A right-leaning serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a crisp, sculpted finish. Stems are robust and tapered into sharp, bracketed serifs, with tightly cut interior counters that keep the overall color dark and authoritative. Curves and joins show a calligraphic logic—especially in the lowercase—while capitals stay stately and slightly condensed in their inner space, producing a steady rhythm. Numerals share the same slanted stance and contrast, with angled terminals and clear, serifed silhouettes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short passages where contrast and italic momentum can be appreciated. It works well for magazine layouts, book covers, and branded editorial voice—particularly for pull quotes, introductions, and other emphasis-forward typography.
The face reads as formal and editorial, with a sense of classic book typography pushed toward a more dramatic, display-leaning voice. Its strong contrast and italic energy suggest sophistication and motion rather than neutrality, evoking literary, fashion, or prestige contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif foundation with heightened contrast and a confident italic stance, balancing classical proportions with a more theatrical presence for contemporary editorial use.
At larger sizes the sharp terminals, tight apertures, and energetic diagonals feel crisp and elegant; at smaller sizes the dense stroke weight and narrow internal spaces may make it feel assertive and compact. The italic angle is consistent across letters and figures, giving text a continuous forward flow.
