A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered serifs and subtly flared stroke endings that broaden into wedge-like terminals. The letterforms show a classical, editorial skeleton with clean vertical stress and a pronounced thick–thin rhythm, giving counters and apertures a sculpted, chiseled feel. Serifs are pointed and slightly bracketed rather than blocky, and joins remain neat and controlled, producing a polished texture in both caps and lowercase.
Well suited to headlines, decks, and pull quotes where contrast and sharp terminals can carry visual hierarchy. It also fits editorial and literary applications such as magazine features, book or chapter titles, and upscale branding that benefits from a classic serif voice.
The overall tone is formal and confident, with a dramatic, print-forward presence that reads as traditional yet energetic. Its sharp terminals and contrast add a sense of sophistication and authority, lending the font a literary, magazine-like voice.
The design appears aimed at delivering a traditional serif presence with added drama through flared terminals and strong thick–thin modulation. It prioritizes refined, print-like texture and a distinctive silhouette for display-led typography while remaining composed in text-sized samples.
In running text the strong contrast creates a lively sparkle, while the firm verticals keep the line stable. The figures follow the same sharp, tapered logic as the letters, supporting display settings that want a classic, high-end finish.
