A condensed serif with tall proportions and a tight overall rhythm, showing moderately modulated strokes and pronounced vertical stress. Serifs are small and sharply bracketed, with frequent flared joins and pointed, wedge-like terminals that give the outlines a slightly prickly edge. Curves are narrow and upright, counters are compact, and the design relies on long stems and crisp finishing to maintain clarity at condensed widths. Numerals follow the same tall, narrow construction, with angular finishing and restrained ornament.
Well suited to editorial headlines, book-jacket titling, and other space-conscious typography where a narrow footprint and high vertical presence are advantages. It can also work for pull quotes and short passages where a distinctive, period-leaning serif texture is desired, especially in print-like layouts.
The font projects a bookish, old-style sensibility with a slightly eccentric sharpness. Its condensed elegance feels formal and literary, while the spurred terminals add a distinctive, faintly gothic or antiquarian flavor that keeps it from reading as purely neutral.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif interpreted through a condensed, display-friendly lens, emphasizing tall proportions and expressive terminals to add character without relying on extreme contrast. It aims to pack presence into tight widths while preserving a readable, familiar serif structure.
Across the set, the silhouette alternates between slender verticals and taut, tapered strokes, creating a lively texture in paragraphs. The punctuation and basic forms appear designed to stay crisp and distinct in dense settings, with the overall personality coming more from terminal treatment than from heavy contrast.
