A sculpted serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and flared, wedge-like stroke endings that read as crisp serifs rather than slabs. The letterforms show a slightly calligraphic construction: stress is evident in rounded shapes, joins are clean, and terminals often taper to sharp points. Capitals are broad and stately with confident verticals, while lowercase has a compact, readable rhythm with sturdy bowls and energetic diagonals. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, flared logic, giving figures a strong, engraved presence in text and display settings.
Well suited to headlines, magazine or newspaper-style typography, and title treatments where contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It can also serve book covers, cultural branding, and packaging that calls for a traditional yet striking serif presence, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with an editorial sharpness that feels refined and ceremonial. Its contrast and pointed terminals add drama and a touch of old-world gravitas, making even short phrases feel deliberate and prominent.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with added visual bite through flared stroke endings and high contrast. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and a carved, print-like texture that elevates titles and editorial typography.
Pointed terminals and widened stroke endings create strong silhouettes and distinctive word shapes, especially in letters like A, K, R, V, W, and y. The design favors crisp edges and sculptural counters, which enhances impact at larger sizes while keeping a traditional serif voice.
