A high-contrast serif with sculpted, bracketed wedge serifs and a strongly vertical, upright stance. Strokes transition sharply from thick mains to fine hairlines, giving the letters a crisp, engraved feel, while terminals often taper to pointed or subtly hooked finishes. The caps are broad and steady with commanding weight, and the lowercase shows a moderately compact rhythm with narrow joins and pronounced serifs that add texture. Numerals and capitals share the same robust, slightly angular modeling, producing a consistent, authoritative color in text.
This style suits headlines and display typography where contrast and sculpted serifs can read as premium and authoritative. It also fits editorial applications such as magazine titles, section openers, and book-cover typography that benefit from a classic, literary voice.
The overall tone is formal and traditional, with a stately, old-world confidence. Its sharp contrast and pointed serif treatment lend an editorial, bookish character that feels ceremonial and serious rather than casual or friendly.
The design appears intended to modernize a classic text-serif model with heightened contrast and sharply cut, wedge-like serifs, aiming for strong presence and refined drama in prominent settings.
In the sample text, the heavy stems and fine connecting hairlines create a dramatic page presence, especially at larger sizes. The pointed detailing and tight interior spaces can make the texture feel dense, which emphasizes impact and hierarchy more than airy neutrality.
