A high-contrast serif with slender, vertical proportions and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems finish in tapered, flared terminals and bracketed serifs that read more like swelling stroke endings than flat slabs, giving the outlines a subtly calligraphic feel. Curves are smooth and controlled, with tight apertures and compact inner counters; joins and transitions are clean, producing a crisp rhythm in text. Numerals and capitals maintain a stately, editorial presence, with sharp apexes and neatly sculpted diagonals.
Well-suited to editorial typography where a refined, high-contrast serif is desired—magazines, book interiors, and pull quotes in larger sizes. It also works effectively for formal headings, cultural branding, and invitation-style materials where its tapered terminals and crisp rhythm can be featured.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, evoking book typography and upscale print. Its sharp modulation and tapered endings add a slightly dramatic, crafted character that feels poised rather than mechanical.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif structure with flared, stroke-like endings to achieve an elegant, print-forward voice. Its narrow stance and strong modulation suggest a focus on creating a sophisticated, space-efficient texture for display and editorial use.
In the sample text, the narrow letterforms and strong contrast create a dense, articulate texture with clear vertical emphasis. The pointed terminals and flared endings are especially noticeable at larger sizes, where the sculpting reads as intentional detailing.
