A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and fuller vertical stems that flare into wedge-like, bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, with crisp terminals and pointed joins that give the outlines a precise, cut-in feel. Proportions lean slightly condensed in the caps, while the lowercase maintains steady rhythm and a moderate x-height; ascenders are prominent and the overall color stays clean and bright at text sizes. Numerals follow the same contrast pattern with elegant curves and fine top strokes, reading as traditional lining figures.
Well suited to long-form editorial settings such as books and magazines where contrast and crisp serif structure enhance a traditional reading experience. It also performs strongly in headlines, pull quotes, and brand identities that want an upscale, classical voice, and can add formality to invitations and cultural or academic materials.
The typeface conveys a refined, editorial tone—confident and cultured rather than casual. Its sharp contrast and flared finishing details add a sense of ceremony and sophistication suited to classic, literary typography.
The design appears intended to modernize a classic high-contrast serif model with flared, wedge-like serif treatment and crisp detailing, balancing text readability with a polished, display-capable finish.
Spacing appears even and composed, supporting continuous reading in paragraphs while still offering pronounced sparkle from the thin strokes. The design’s flared endings and wedge serifs give it a subtly engraved, display-friendly presence without becoming overly ornamental.
