A sharply italic serif with pronounced calligraphic modulation and crisp, tapering terminals. Strokes move between hairline thins and heavy stems, creating a lively, high-contrast rhythm and a glossy black presence in text. Serifs are small and angled, often resolving into wedge-like entry/exit strokes rather than flat brackets, and many letters show subtly swashed finishes that push the silhouette forward. Proportions lean narrow-to-moderate with clear, readable counters, while the overall texture is dynamic and slightly compressed by the strong slant.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, magazine-style layouts, and brand moments that benefit from a dramatic italic voice. It can work for short-to-medium passages when ample size and spacing are available, but its strong contrast and animated terminals make it especially effective as a display serif.
The font projects a polished, high-style mood—confident, theatrical, and a touch romantic. Its energetic italic motion and sharp contrast read as luxurious and attention-seeking, with a classic editorial flavor rather than a quiet bookish tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, editorial italic with classic serif structure, emphasizing forward motion, sharp contrast, and a refined calligraphic finish for high-impact typography.
The uppercase forms feel sculpted and display-like, while the lowercase shows more cursive behavior, especially in letters with extended tails and pointed terminals. Numerals follow the same slanted, modulated logic and appear designed to match headline settings where contrast and movement are desirable.
