A sculpted serif with strong thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs that taper to sharp terminals. The letterforms show a traditional, slightly condensed text rhythm with sturdy verticals, fine hairlines, and carefully cut joins that create bright, clean counters. Uppercase proportions feel stately and structured, while the lowercase carries a compact, print-like texture with a relatively high waist and distinct, angled entry/exit strokes. Numerals and punctuation match the same engraved, high-contrast construction for a consistent page color in display sizes.
Well suited to headlines and subheads in magazines, book covers, and other editorial layouts where contrast and detail are meant to be seen. It can also support premium branding and packaging when paired with ample whitespace and high-quality reproduction.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, with a formal, authoritative presence. Its pronounced contrast and sharp details add a dramatic, refined feel associated with luxury, literature, and traditional publishing.
The design appears intended as a conventional, print-oriented serif with heightened contrast and sharp finishing, aiming for a timeless editorial voice that feels established and upscale.
At larger sizes the sharp serifs, narrow hairlines, and wedge-like terminals become a defining feature, producing a crisp, high-end look. The texture is firm and dark, and spacing appears set up to read as confident headline type with clear letter separation.
