A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced forward slant and strongly tapered strokes. Serifs are sharp and wedge-like with subtle bracketing, creating crisp entry/exit terminals and a rhythmic, calligraphic flow. Capitals are slightly narrower and stately, while lowercase forms show lively modulation with compact counters and a relatively upright, readable structure for an italic. Numerals follow the same angled stress and contrast, with clear, sculpted shapes suited to display sizes.
Best suited to editorial contexts such as magazine headlines, book and journal titling, pull quotes, and elegant branding where a refined italic voice is desired. It can also work for short passages or emphasis in text settings, especially when given enough size and breathing room to preserve the hairline detail.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking traditional book typography and classic editorial styling. Its energetic slant and crisp terminals add a sense of motion and sophistication without feeling decorative or informal.
The design appears intended as a classic, high-contrast italic companion for sophisticated typography—prioritizing elegant movement, crisp finishing, and a traditional serif vocabulary that reads as premium and established.
Stroke contrast and pointed terminals can create sparkle at larger sizes, while the narrowest hairlines may require sufficient size or print quality to maintain clarity. The italic construction feels intentional rather than simply obliqued, with consistent stress and a cohesive slanted rhythm across letters and figures.
