A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weight concentrated in strong vertical stems. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, with pointed terminals and occasional ball/teardrop finishes in the lowercase. Curves are generously rounded but tightened at joins, producing a crisp, sculpted texture; counters read open while stroke endings stay finely drawn. Proportions are broad in the caps and many round letters, and the design shows a distinctly modulated, pen-influenced stress without slanting the overall stance.
Best suited to display sizes such as headlines, pull quotes, magazine titles, and book or album covers where the fine hairlines can be appreciated. It can also support formal branding and invitation work when printed or rendered at sizes that preserve its delicate detailing.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish authority with a slightly theatrical polish. Its sharp hairlines and emphatic serifs add ceremony and a vintage editorial tone, feeling confident and refined rather than casual.
The design appears intended to reinterpret conventional serif letterforms with a more dramatic, engraved contrast and refined finishing. Its wide presence and crisp modulation suggest a focus on impact and elegance in editorial and titling contexts.
In text, the combination of thin joins and pronounced thick strokes creates a lively rhythm and noticeable sparkle, especially around letters like a, e, s, and g. The numerals share the same engraved, high-contrast flavor, with elegant curves and pointed terminals that can stand out as display figures.
