A slanted, calligraphic roman with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a crisp, pen-driven rhythm. Strokes end in sharp, flared wedges and tapered terminals, giving letters a cut-and-brushed texture rather than smooth typographic serifs. Uppercase forms are compact and slightly angular, while lowercase letters show lively ascenders and looped, hooked details in characters like g, y, and z. Curves are somewhat faceted and the overall texture is dark and energetic, with subtly uneven stroke edges that read as hand-rendered.
Best suited to display settings where the textured contrast and italic motion can be appreciated—titles, headlines, posters, book or chapter openings, and formal announcements such as invitations. It can also work for short pull quotes or branding accents when a historic, handcrafted tone is desired; extended small text may feel dense due to the dark stroke color and active texture.
The style evokes historical manuscript and storybook lettering, balancing formality with a spirited, slightly theatrical motion. Its contrast and sharp terminals create a dramatic tone, suggesting tradition, craft, and ceremony more than everyday neutrality.
The design appears intended to translate broad-nib or brush calligraphy into a consistent digital style: dramatic contrast, expressive terminals, and a controlled italic slant that reads as formal yet handcrafted. The goal seems to be strong atmosphere and period flavor in display typography while keeping letterforms recognizable and cohesive across cases and figures.
Spacing and letterfit feel intentionally varied, producing an animated line color that reinforces the handmade impression. The numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with angled stress and distinctive terminal cuts that keep them visually consistent with the alphabet.
