A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and finely pointed, bracketed serifs. The forms show a pronounced vertical stress and a lively modulation between thick stems and hairline connections, giving the lettershapes a bright, engraved-like clarity. Uppercase proportions feel stately and compact with sharp apexes and wedge-like finishing, while the lowercase has a traditional rhythm with sturdy stems and small, neat counters. Numerals follow the same calligraphic contrast, with curved figures showing strong thick–thin transitions and sharply finished terminals.
Well suited to editorial design, book covers, and headline typography where its high-contrast structure and sharp serif detailing can be appreciated. It also fits branding for premium or heritage-leaning products and formal materials such as invitations, certificates, and programs.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, evoking book typography, heritage institutions, and traditional print craft. Its sharp detailing and contrast read as refined and serious, lending an authoritative, slightly dramatic voice to headlines and prominent text.
The font appears designed to deliver a conventional text-serif voice with elevated contrast and crisp finishing, balancing readability with a polished, print-forward sophistication. Its emphasis on sharp terminals and classic proportions suggests an aim toward elegant display and editorial settings rather than purely utilitarian body text.
The design’s fine hairlines and pointed terminals create a vivid texture at larger sizes, while the compact, strongly serifed silhouettes help maintain a formal presence in mixed-case settings. Curves and joins are handled with clear calligraphic logic, producing a consistent, disciplined rhythm across letters and figures.
