A sculpted serif with pronounced contrast and wedge-like, flaring stroke endings that broaden into sharp, triangular terminals. Serifs are strongly bracketed and often taper to points, giving the outlines a cut-from-stone clarity rather than soft rounding. Counters are moderately compact and the curves show a subtle calligraphic tension, with crisp joins and occasional tight inner corners that read like ink-trap-like notches at display sizes. Capitals feel sturdy and formal, while the lowercase carries a slightly more dynamic rhythm through lively bowls and a compact, weighty texture.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and other display-driven settings where its sharp serifs and dramatic contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for editorial branding, book or magazine covers, and pull quotes where a classic yet forceful voice is needed.
The overall tone is assertive and editorial, combining old-style gravitas with a sharpened, contemporary edge. Its pointed terminals and dramatic contrast bring a sense of ceremony and headline authority, while the underlying proportions keep it anchored and readable.
The design appears aimed at delivering a traditional serif voice with heightened drama: flared, wedge-like endings and strong contrast create a bold editorial presence while retaining familiar, classical letterform structure.
In the sample text, the dense color and sharp serifs create strong word shapes and a commanding paragraph presence, especially at larger sizes. Numerals appear robust and display-leaning, matching the angular serif language and maintaining the same crisp, chiseled finish.
