A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered serifs, pronounced bracketed joins, and a consistent rightward slant. Strokes alternate between thin hairlines and fuller stems, creating a crisp, engraved color on the page. Letterforms show lively modulation and slightly varied widths, with compact counters and a relatively traditional italic construction (single-storey lowercase forms, flowing entry/exit strokes, and a calligraphic rhythm). Numerals and capitals maintain the same sharp detailing and contrast, producing a refined, text-oriented texture at larger sizes.
Well suited to book and long-form editorial typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis, quotations, introductions, or sidebars. It also performs effectively in magazine features, refined headings, pull quotes, and other settings where a classic, high-contrast italic can add hierarchy and elegance.
The overall tone is formal and literary, with a distinctly classic, bookish sensibility. Its slanted, calligraphic energy adds sophistication and motion while keeping an authoritative, traditional voice suitable for serious editorial contexts.
Designed to provide a traditional italic companion with clear calligraphic modulation and a polished, conventional serif structure. The intent appears to balance classic readability with a more dramatic, high-contrast rhythm for emphasis and refined typographic color.
Sharp terminals and fine hairlines give the design a precise, almost engraved finish, while the italic forms retain enough openness to read cleanly in continuous text. The mix of strong contrast and crisp serifs makes it especially striking in emphasized passages and display-like text settings.
