A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a wide, open stance with generous internal counters and a steady vertical axis, while terminals often finish in fine, pointed wedges that add bite to the silhouettes. Capitals feel stately and evenly proportioned; lowercase maintains a traditional rhythm with a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between bowls, stems, and joins. Overall spacing reads comfortable at display sizes, with a slightly lively texture created by the sharp hairlines and tapered details.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where the sharp contrast and detailed serifs can read cleanly. It’s also a strong option for magazine and book-cover typography, cultural or fashion branding, and elegant poster work that benefits from a classic serif voice.
The font conveys an editorial, classic tone—confident and composed, with a hint of theatrical drama from its sharp hairlines and sculpted serifs. It feels suited to refined, print-oriented typography where elegance and contrast are part of the voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast serif for refined editorial and display settings, balancing traditional proportions with crisp, pointed detailing to create a distinctive, authoritative texture.
Round forms (like O/C and o/e) are drawn with smooth, full curves and tight hairline transitions, while diagonals (V/W/Y) end in fine points that emphasize precision. The numerals carry the same contrast and wedge-like finishing, giving figures a formal, old-world flavor that pairs naturally with the capitals.
