A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are wedge-like and often bracketed into the stems, giving letters a carved, slightly calligraphic feel rather than strictly geometric construction. Curves (C, G, O, Q) show strong stress and crisp joins, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) end in sharp points that reinforce a bold, chiseled silhouette. Lowercase forms are sturdy and compact with clear counters, and numerals share the same heavy presence and tapered detailing for a consistent texture in running text.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, magazine titles, book covers, posters, and identity work where strong contrast and sculpted detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for short-form editorial text or pull quotes when generous size and spacing preserve its crisp serifs and tight internal shapes.
The font conveys a confident, classical tone—ceremonial and editorial at once—with a dramatic contrast that reads as premium and traditional. Its flared finishes and sharp terminals add a sense of craft and gravitas, lending the face an assertive, headline-forward personality.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classical serif proportions with a more expressive, flared stroke ending, combining traditional authority with a bolder, more theatrical surface. Its consistent high-contrast rhythm and carved terminals suggest a focus on impactful display typography that still carries an editorial, literary sensibility.
In the sample text, the heavy weight and strong contrast create a dense, even typographic color, with distinctive, attention-grabbing word shapes. The prominent serifs and tapering terminals remain consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, supporting a cohesive, high-impact voice.
