A slanted, high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and dense, ink-rich main strokes. Serifs are bracketed and often flare into wedge-like terminals, giving the letterforms a chiseled, slightly calligraphic finish. Curves are generous and glossy in feel, with tight apertures and compact interior counters that emphasize weight and impact. The italic construction shows lively entry/exit strokes and occasional swash-like tails (notably in lowercases such as g, j, y), creating a rhythmic, forward-leaning texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine and book cover typography, and brand statements where a bold, expressive serif italic can carry the message. It will also work for short subheads or emphasized passages where contrast and motion are desired, rather than extended small-size reading.
The overall tone is confident and theatrical, leaning toward classic luxury and old-world authority. Its strong contrast and energetic italic movement convey urgency and sophistication, making it feel more like a display italic than a quiet text workhorse.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif base with heightened contrast and an italic, display-driven personality. It prioritizes visual punch, refined curves, and a sense of speed and flourish for attention-grabbing settings.
The numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic with prominent curves and tapered terminals, keeping figures visually consistent with the letterforms. In the sample text, the dark color and tight counters create a bold, poster-like voice, while the angled stress and bracketing add refinement.
