A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are bracketed and often flare out from the stems, giving the joins a sculpted, chiseled feel rather than purely mechanical terminals. Capitals are stately and sharply articulated, with pointed apexes on forms like A and V and a sturdy, symmetrical construction on H and M. Lowercase shows a traditional rhythm with a moderate x-height, compact counters, and a two-storey a; the overall color is firm and authoritative in text, with strong vertical emphasis and clean curves in C, G, and S.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial typography where contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It can also support premium branding and book-cover titling, delivering a classic voice with enough edge for modern layouts.
The font projects a classic, editorial tone—polished and serious, with a slightly dramatic, print-like elegance. Its strong contrast and flared finishing details lend it a composed, prestigious voice suited to cultural and literary contexts.
The design appears intended to combine traditional serif structure with flared, sculptural stroke endings to heighten elegance and impact. Its controlled proportions and pronounced modulation aim for authoritative readability while maintaining a refined, print-forward personality.
Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with sturdy verticals and crisp curves; the 4 is open and the 8 is tightly balanced, reinforcing the typeface’s controlled, traditional character. In the text sample, letterfit and spacing read even and stable, producing a confident typographic texture at display sizes.
