A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are sharp and elegantly bracketed, with subtle flare as stems transition into terminals, giving the letterforms a slightly sculpted, chiseled finish. Capitals feel stately and well-proportioned, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with compact, neatly cut counters and clear joins. Numerals match the text color and contrast, with smooth curves and firm, upright stress.
Well-suited to editorial settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and book cover titling where contrast and sharp serifs can shine. It also works for refined branding applications that want a classic, established voice, particularly in larger display sizes.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, leaning toward traditional book and magazine typography. It conveys a composed, upscale presence—more literary and editorial than casual—while the tapered terminals add a touch of sophistication and drama.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif reading of elegance and authority, combining traditional proportions with tapered, slightly flared finishing for a more contemporary, high-end edge.
In text, the strong contrast and pointed details create a lively sparkle, especially at larger sizes. The design balances sharpness with controlled curves, producing a confident page color without feeling overly ornate.
