A slanted serif with pronounced contrast between thick stems and hairline connections, giving the letters a crisp, engraved feel. Serifs are bracketed and tapered, with sharp terminals and lively, calligraphic modulation that reads clearly in both capitals and lowercase. The proportions are generous and slightly open, with a flowing italic rhythm and energetic diagonals; round letters show a noticeable diagonal stress and tightly drawn joins. Figures follow the same high-contrast, italicized construction, with distinct curves and clear differentiation.
Well suited for editorial and publishing contexts such as book typography, magazine layouts, and feature headlines where an italic voice is desirable. It can also support refined branding or packaging that benefits from a classic, high-contrast serif with a dynamic slant.
The overall tone is classical and editorial, suggesting tradition, refinement, and a slightly dramatic elegance. Its strong slant and sharp detailing create a sense of motion and emphasis, making text feel literary and intentional rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to provide a strong italic companion for conventional serif typography—combining traditional proportions with high-contrast strokes and crisp finishing to deliver emphasis, elegance, and readable texture in setting.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and compact hairlines create a textured page color, while the italic angle produces a consistent forward rhythm across long lines. The capitals retain authority without becoming overly ornate, helping mixed-case settings keep a formal, bookish character.
