A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sculpted, flaring terminals that read as wedge-like serifs. Uppercase forms feel stately and compact, with sharp apexes and crisp joins, while curves (C, G, O, Q) show generous bowls and clean, controlled stress. The lowercase is more dynamic, mixing sturdy verticals with calligraphic inflections and angled entry/exit strokes; the italic-like movement is suggested without a full slant. Numerals are strong and display-oriented, with teardrop-like terminals and clear, traditional proportions.
Best suited to display and headline use where its contrast and sculpted terminals can be appreciated—magazine titles, book jackets, cultural branding, and posters. It can also work for short passages or pull quotes when ample size and spacing preserve the crisp details.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, projecting tradition and authority with a slightly dramatic, engraved feel. It suggests a bookish, heritage voice—confident and refined rather than casual or playful.
The letterforms appear intended to blend classical serif structure with a more chiseled, flared finishing language, aiming for strong presence and a premium, traditional voice. The mix of sturdy capitals and expressive lowercase details suggests an emphasis on impactful titles and sophisticated editorial typography.
The design relies on sharp internal shapes and tapered finishing strokes, creating a lively rhythm in text despite the heavy color. In larger sizes the flared endings and pointed details become especially prominent, giving headings a carved, poster-like presence.
