A sculpted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered, wedge-like terminals. Stems and arms often broaden into flared endings, giving the letters a carved, chiseled feel, while curves are smooth and tightly controlled. The uppercase shows confident, classical proportions with strong vertical stress and crisp joins; the lowercase is compact and sturdy with a noticeable rhythmic alternation of heavy stems and fine hairlines. Numerals follow the same high-contrast construction, reading clearly at display sizes with emphatic verticals and refined detailing.
This design is well suited to headlines, magazine display typography, book covers, and poster titles where its contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated. It can also support branding and identity work that needs a classic-but-distinctive serif voice, particularly in logotypes and short statements.
The overall tone is editorial and dramatic, combining classical sophistication with a slightly theatrical edge. Its sharp terminals and flared stroke endings convey authority and polish, making text feel deliberate and elevated rather than casual.
The font appears designed to deliver a refined display serif with a classical backbone, using high contrast and flared endings to add personality and impact. Its detailing suggests an intention to evoke carved or calligraphic influence while maintaining a structured, editorial rhythm.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and pointed details create a lively texture that commands attention, while the consistent vertical stress keeps lines feeling orderly. The sharp apexes and narrow interior joins can build density in longer settings, suggesting best performance where size and spacing can be controlled.
