A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, giving strokes a carved, engraved feel while maintaining smooth, continuous curves. The italic construction is assertive, with flowing diagonals, energetic entry/exit strokes, and occasional swash-like details (notably in the lowercase). Counters are compact and the overall color is dark and saturated, with tight internal spaces and a steady, text-oriented rhythm.
This style performs best in editorial typography where an italic is intended to carry emphasis with presence—magazine features, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, and expressive subheads. It can also serve for refined branding moments (e.g., fashion, culture, and heritage themes) where a traditional serif italic is desired with extra flair and contrast.
The font reads as classic and editorial, projecting authority and tradition with a distinctly expressive italic voice. Its sharp contrast and sculpted details add drama and sophistication, making it feel suited to refined, literary contexts rather than utilitarian UI styling.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif voice with an elevated, expressive italic—combining classic proportions and serif structure with sharpened contrast and lively, calligraphic motion for impactful emphasis in text and display settings.
Uppercase forms are strong and slightly condensed in feel, with crisp apexes and clearly differentiated silhouettes. Lowercase letters show more movement and personality, including a lively two-storey “g” and a distinctive “j” with a prominent dot. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, italic logic, with elegant curves and sharp finishing strokes that keep them visually consistent with text settings.
