A high-contrast serif with stout vertical stems and tapered, flared terminals that read as wedge-like serifs. The forms show a clear vertical stress and a crisp, editorial rhythm: hairlines are thin and taut, while thick strokes are broad and stable. Serifs are compact and bracketing is subtle, giving joins a carved, slightly calligraphic feel rather than a mechanical one. Counters are relatively open for the weight, with assertive curves and sharp beak-like details appearing in letters such as a, f, and r, and a strong, sculpted presence in caps.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, and other editorial applications where contrast and character are assets. It also fits premium branding and packaging—especially for products that benefit from a classic, sculpted serif voice—while staying legible enough for short bursts of larger-size text.
The overall tone feels refined and authoritative, balancing traditional bookish cues with a theatrical sharpness. It carries a fashion/editorial polish—confident, slightly dramatic, and suited to statements that should feel premium rather than casual.
The design appears intended to merge a traditional serif foundation with flared, tapered stroke endings that add sparkle and a carved, high-end impression. Its contrast and sharp terminals prioritize impact and refinement, aiming for strong presence in display and editorial contexts.
Capitals are tall and emphatic with clean, high-contrast silhouettes, while the lowercase maintains sturdy readability through strong stems and clear countershapes. Numerals follow the same chiseled contrast, with pronounced curves and crisp terminals that keep them visually consistent in display settings.
