A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and weighty verticals, showing a distinctly sculpted, flared treatment at stroke endings. Serifs read as sharp wedges with gentle bracketing, giving terminals a carved, calligraphic feel rather than flat slabs. The proportions are balanced and bookish, with clear, open counters and a steady baseline rhythm; joins and curves are clean and taut, and the overall texture in text is lively but controlled.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, book and journal titling, and magazine typography where contrast and refined detailing can be appreciated. It can also serve in premium branding and poster work, particularly for cultural, fashion, or arts contexts that benefit from a classic yet incisive serif voice.
The font conveys an editorial, literary tone—polished and authoritative with a touch of drama from the strong contrast and pointed terminals. It feels traditional and cultured, suited to environments where elegance and seriousness are desired without becoming overly ornate.
The design appears intended to merge classical serif structure with a more sculptural, flared terminal treatment, producing a stately reading texture and a distinctive silhouette. It aims for versatility across display and text by keeping letterforms disciplined while using contrast and sharp serifs to add character.
In larger sizes the pointed serifs and flared terminals become a defining detail, lending a chiselled, display-like personality; in text, the sharp transitions and fine hairlines create a bright, high-definition color. Numerals and capitals appear sturdy and dignified, matching the sharp, modern-classical serif language seen throughout.
