A high-contrast serif with a pronounced italic slant and sculpted, flaring stroke endings. Stems are thick and steady while hairlines taper sharply, creating a lively diagonal rhythm and strong color on the page. Serifs are small to medium, often bracketed and wedge-like, and several letters show soft ball/teardrop terminals (notably in the lowercase). The proportions feel on the broader side with generous counters; curves are full and slightly asymmetric in the italic construction, giving the text a dynamic, cut-by-pen feel.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other editorial display roles where its contrast and italic momentum can be appreciated. It can work for book covers, cultural/event posters, and brand marks that want a classic serif voice with extra drama; in longer passages it will read more assertively than a calm text face.
The overall tone is expressive and assertive, balancing traditional bookish refinement with a more theatrical, swash-leaning energy. It reads as elegant and authoritative, with enough motion and contrast to feel attention-grabbing rather than quiet.
This design appears intended to deliver a classic serif identity with heightened contrast and italic dynamism, using flared terminals and tapered joins to evoke calligraphic construction while maintaining a sturdy, contemporary display presence.
The sample text shows strong word-shape and an energetic baseline due to the italic angle, making it particularly punchy at display sizes. Numerals and capitals carry the same flared, high-contrast logic, supporting cohesive titling alongside text.
