A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered joins and pronounced wedge-like serifs that often read as flared or beaked terminals. Stems are robust and vertical, while hairlines are extremely thin, creating a crisp, etched rhythm. Many capitals show stylized, slightly calligraphic construction—most notably the sweeping, swash-like top of the A and the strong diagonal energy in letters like K, V, W, X, and Y. The lowercase is compact and sturdy with tight apertures and strong bowls; punctuation and figures follow the same bold-stem/thin-hairline logic, with lining numerals that feel carved and angular in their details.
Best suited to headlines, magazine/editorial settings, and display typography where its contrast and wedge-serifs can read clearly. It can work well for book covers, cultural branding, and packaging that aims for a refined, classical voice, especially when set at moderate to large sizes with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is authoritative and theatrical: classic in its serif vocabulary, but with added drama from the extreme contrast and emphatic, chiseled terminals. It suggests heritage and ceremony more than neutrality, giving text a headline-forward presence and a sense of gravitas.
The letterforms appear intended to combine classical serif structure with a more sculptural, flared-terminal finish, prioritizing drama and distinction in display settings. The consistent contrast model and assertive terminals suggest a design aimed at impactful titles and formal, premium-facing typography.
The design relies on crisp edges and fine hairlines, so small sizes or low-resolution reproduction may reduce the visibility of its thinnest strokes. Uppercase forms carry more flourish than the lowercase, creating a pronounced headline/display personality.
