A high-contrast serif italic with sharply bracketed wedge serifs and a pronounced calligraphic slant. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation with diagonal stress, and curves terminate in crisp, slightly tapered feet. Capitals are broad and stately with firm, sculpted serifs, while lowercase forms are more fluid, featuring compact bowls, angled entry strokes, and a single-storey a with a rounded terminal. Numerals read as oldstyle figures, with varied heights and descenders that match the flowing rhythm of the lowercase.
Well suited for editorial typography such as magazine features, book typography, and literary headings where an italic voice is needed. It works especially well for emphasis, quotations, introductions, and short passages that benefit from a traditional, high-contrast serif italic presence.
The overall tone feels traditional and literary, with a refined, editorial character that suggests bookish authority rather than display novelty. Its brisk italic movement and sharp serifs add a sense of formality and polish suited to established, classical typography.
The design appears intended as a conventional text-serif italic that balances elegance with readability, using calligraphic modulation and bracketed serifs to deliver a classic, authoritative tone for continuous reading and editorial emphasis.
The texture is lively: letterforms vary in internal width and aperture, creating a dynamic line rhythm typical of text italics. Terminals and joins remain clean and decisive, which helps preserve clarity even with strong contrast and slanted forms.
