A compact, sturdy serif with flared stroke endings and sharp, chiseled terminals. The design shows moderate contrast, with strong vertical emphasis and narrow proportions that create a tight, rhythmic texture in text. Serifs are wedge-like and energetic rather than bracketed and bookish, producing a more stylized silhouette with pronounced points, notches, and tapered joins.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, posters, book covers, and mastheads where a compact width and strong typographic color are beneficial. It can also work for short editorial passages, pull quotes, and packaging copy where a classic, punchy serif texture is preferred over a softer book face.
This typeface projects a confident, editorial tone with a touch of old-style gravitas. Its crisp, tapered endings and lively serif shapes give it a slightly theatrical, vintage-leaning personality while remaining clear and authoritative.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, space-efficient serif voice with distinctive flared endings that add character at display sizes. Its narrow set and emphatic terminals suggest an aim for impactful headlines and titling where a traditional serif feel is desired without looking neutral.
The uppercase forms read especially assertive due to tall verticals and pointed serifs, while the lowercase keeps a sturdy, readable structure with compact counters. Numerals appear consistent in weight and presence, matching the font’s dense, high-contrast text color in running samples.
