A compact serif with subtly flared stroke endings and tapered, wedge-like terminals that give stems a gently sculpted feel. Serifs read as bracketed and sharp rather than blocky, with moderate stroke modulation and clean, decisive joins. Proportions are relatively condensed with tall capitals and a steady vertical rhythm; bowls stay controlled and slightly narrow, helping the type hold a firm, composed texture in lines of text. Numerals and punctuation follow the same tapered logic, keeping the overall color even and crisp.
Works well for magazine headlines, book covers, and branding systems that need a classic serif presence with a touch of sharpness. In editorial text, it can provide a firm, elegant voice for pull quotes, subheads, and short-to-medium passages where a slightly condensed footprint helps fit copy without sacrificing clarity.
The tone is traditional and authoritative, with a slightly dramatic, engraved flavor from the tapered terminals and poised contrast. It feels bookish and editorial—confident rather than playful—suited to settings where a classical voice and clear hierarchy are desired.
Likely designed to deliver a traditional serif voice with added tension and definition through flared stroke endings and tapered terminals, balancing readability with a more ceremonial, display-ready demeanor.
The design’s character is driven by its flaring at stroke ends and pointed terminals, which add snap in display sizes while still maintaining a coherent text rhythm. Uppercase forms look particularly statuesque, and the lowercase maintains a disciplined, readable silhouette without looking mechanical.
