A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring terminals that give stems a gently tapered, chiseled feel. Serifs appear bracketed and often wedge-like, with sharp inner joins and smooth outer curves that create a lively, carved rhythm. Rounds are full and weighty in the thick zones, while hairlines stay crisp, producing strong sparkle in text. The lowercase shows a two-storey “a” and “g”, prominent ball terminals on several letters, and a slightly compact, bookish texture despite the heavy weight.
Well-suited for editorial headlines, magazine titling, and high-impact posters where contrast and sculpted serifs can shine. It can also support premium branding and packaging when used with generous spacing and adequate size to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is commanding and refined, balancing classical heritage with a display-like sense of drama. Its sharp transitions and flared endings feel ceremonial and editorial, suggesting luxury and seriousness rather than casual utility.
Likely designed to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened contrast and flared stroke endings, aiming for a distinctive, premium presence in display and editorial settings. The intent appears to emphasize sculptural letterforms and a confident typographic color rather than neutrality.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and active terminals create noticeable texture and emphasis, especially around curves and diagonals. Numerals and capitals read as stately and formal, with a consistent, carved modulation that favors impact at larger sizes.
