A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a distinctly calligraphic stress. Thick main strokes pair with hairline joins and sharp, tapered entries, producing crisp internal rhythm and bright counters. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, with several letters showing swashy, teardrop or ball-like terminals that add flair without breaking overall consistency. Uppercase forms feel slightly condensed and stately, while the lowercase is more flowing, with prominent ascenders, compact bowls, and lively stroke modulation.
Best suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, magazine or book cover typography, and branding where an elegant italic presence is desired. It can also work for invitations or event materials, especially when set with generous spacing and paired with a quieter companion text face.
The overall tone is elegant and theatrical, mixing traditional bookish refinement with a hint of vintage display charm. Its strong contrast and expressive terminals give it a confident, attention-grabbing voice that still reads as classically grounded.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic italic serif with heightened contrast and decorative finishing, offering a more expressive alternative to utilitarian italics. It aims to create a luxurious, traditional impression while remaining coherent enough for short passages and prominent typographic statements.
Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with curving forms and distinctive terminal shaping that reads well in headings. The sample text shows dense, dark color at larger sizes and a rhythmic, slanted texture suited to emphasis and titling rather than quiet long-form reading.
