A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke terminals and a distinctly chiseled silhouette. Vertical stems are heavy and steady while joins and hairlines pinch down sharply, creating a crisp light–dark rhythm. Serifs and ends often broaden into wedge-like forms with subtly bracketed transitions, giving counters a carved, teardrop quality in places. Proportions lean broad with sturdy capitals, a moderate x-height, and compact apertures that read cleanly at display sizes; numerals follow the same strongly modulated, old-style-like stress.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, book and album covers, posters, and brand marks that want a traditional yet striking serif. It can also work for pull quotes and section openers where its high contrast and sculpted terminals can be appreciated without the thin strokes getting lost.
The tone is formal and dramatic, with a classic editorial confidence. Its sharp modulation and flared endings evoke heritage printing and engraved or calligraphic influence, producing a refined but forceful voice that feels suited to statements rather than whispers.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif structure with pronounced flaring terminals, emphasizing a carved, high-contrast texture for impactful reading at larger sizes. It prioritizes expressive stroke modulation and a stately, editorial presence over neutral, utilitarian text color.
Uppercase forms look especially monumental due to their wide stance and emphatic verticals, while lowercase maintains a lively, slightly calligraphic energy through angled stress and pointed terminals. Spacing appears generous enough for headline setting, and the strong contrast rewards larger sizes where the fine strokes can breathe.
