A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, wedge-like, bracketed serifs and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with diagonal stress, giving round letters a slightly sculpted feel and emphasizing entry/exit strokes. Proportions are moderately compact with a normal x-height; the italic angle is clear without becoming cursive, and the overall texture reads crisp and energetic in both uppercase and lowercase.
Works well for editorial headlines, pull quotes, and other short-to-medium text where an italic voice is desired. It suits book and magazine typography, especially for titling, intros, or emphatic passages, and can also support formal printed materials such as invitations or certificates when paired with a calmer roman companion.
The tone is traditional and literary, with an editorial polish that suggests established print culture. Its sharp terminals and pronounced contrast add drama and refinement, producing a confident, slightly formal voice suited to expressive typography.
The design appears intended to provide a classic italic with strong contrast and crisp, wedge-like detailing, balancing readability with expressive movement. It emphasizes a refined typographic color and authoritative presence suitable for sophisticated print-oriented composition.
Uppercase forms feel stately and clean while the lowercase carries more motion through angled joins and tapered terminals. Numerals follow the same sharp, high-contrast logic and appear display-friendly, with distinctive curves and strong finishing strokes that help them stand out in headings.
