A sculpted serif with pronounced contrast and wide, swelling main strokes that taper into refined hairlines. Serifs and terminals are distinctly flared and often wedge-like, with bracketed transitions that give stems a carved, calligraphic feel. Capitals are sturdy and stately with sharp apexes (notably in A, V, W) and generous internal counters, while the lowercase shows a compact rhythm with strong, rounded bowls and crisp, sheared joins. Curves are smooth and weighty, and the overall texture on the page is dark and assertive, especially in text settings.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other large-size typography where its contrast and flared finishing details can read cleanly. It also works well for editorial branding, book and magazine covers, and premium packaging where a dark, stately typographic voice is desirable.
The tone is classic and authoritative, combining traditional bookish cues with a slightly theatrical, display-forward punch. Its high contrast and flared finishing strokes add drama and polish, making it feel confident, formal, and editorial in spirit.
The design appears intended to merge a traditional serif foundation with expressive, flared stroke endings to create a bold, high-impact reading color. It emphasizes strong vertical presence and polished finishing details for use in display and editorial contexts.
Spacing appears generous enough to keep counters open despite the heavy color, and the forms maintain clear differentiation between similar characters (such as O/Q and I/J). Numerals match the letterforms with bold presence and crisp tapering details, supporting strong typographic hierarchy in headings.
