A sharply modeled italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline finishing. The serifs are tapered and bracketed, with wedge-like entry strokes and pointed terminals that give the outlines a sculpted, engraved feel. Curves are smooth but assertive, and counters stay relatively open despite the heavy main strokes; the overall rhythm reads as tightly controlled and slightly forward-leaning. Numerals and capitals carry strong diagonal stress, while the lowercase shows a calligraphic slant and lively joins that reinforce an energetic text flow.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine features, and book or chapter titling where the high-contrast italic texture can shine. It can also work for premium branding and formal pieces like invitations or certificates, especially when used at larger sizes with comfortable spacing to preserve the delicate hairlines.
The tone is formal and cultivated, combining old-world sophistication with a sense of motion and emphasis. Its steep contrast and decisive terminals add drama, making it feel suited to confident, authoritative voice—more “literary journal” than casual contemporary.
The font appears designed to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened contrast and an expressive italic stance, balancing classical proportions with a more theatrical, attention-grabbing presence for display-oriented typography.
The design relies on clear stroke hierarchy: thick stems anchor the texture while extremely fine hairlines and pointed endings create sparkle at display sizes. The italic construction is consistent across cases, producing a cohesive, energetic page color when set in longer lines.
