A high-contrast serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Thick verticals and hairline joins create sharp light–dark transitions, while bracketed wedge serifs and tapered terminals give the shapes a carved, slightly swashed feel without becoming ornamental. Counters are moderately open and the curves show a subtle diagonal stress, producing a smooth, flowing texture in text despite the weight. Numerals and capitals follow the same energetic, angled construction, with crisp edges and confident, sculpted silhouettes.
Well-suited to headlines, magazine and editorial typography, pull quotes, and premium branding where expressive contrast is desirable. It also fits book covers and display applications that benefit from a classic serif voice with added italic momentum.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, with an editorial polish that reads as premium and self-assured. Its italic energy and striking contrast add a sense of motion and emphasis, making it feel expressive and slightly theatrical while remaining rooted in traditional bookish forms.
The design appears intended to blend conventional serif structure with a more spirited, calligraphy-informed italic profile, delivering impact and elegance at display sizes while maintaining recognizable text-serif conventions.
The strong slant and heavy strokes create pronounced word shapes and punchy emphasis, while the hairlines and fine serifs introduce delicacy at larger sizes. In dense settings, the contrast and angled forms give the line a distinctive sparkle and a slightly assertive presence.
