A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines, fuller main strokes, and bracketed, slightly flared terminals that give the letterforms a sculpted, engraved feel. Proportions are fairly traditional with a moderate x-height, pronounced stroke modulation, and sharp, triangular serifs on many capitals. Counters are compact and controlled, curves are smooth and taut, and the overall rhythm is steady but lively due to the strong contrast and tapered joins. Numerals follow the same contrast and serif treatment, reading clearly with a classic, print-oriented stance.
Well suited for editorial headlines, book cover typography, magazine mastheads, and refined brand identities where a classic serif voice is desired. It also fits formal printed materials such as invitations and programs, especially when set at display sizes that let the contrast and sharp terminals read cleanly.
The tone is refined and editorial, projecting authority and a sense of tradition. Its sharp detailing and pronounced contrast suggest premium print craftsmanship, lending an elegant, slightly dramatic voice to headlines and short passages.
Designed to deliver a classic, print-forward serif look with pronounced contrast and sculpted terminals, balancing tradition with a slightly flared, expressive finish. The intent appears to prioritize elegance and impact in display and editorial contexts while retaining familiar, readable proportions.
The lowercase shows strong calligraphic influence in the way strokes swell and taper, and the punctuation and dots feel crisp and assertive. In large sizes the fine hairlines and sharp serifs become a defining feature, while in smaller sizes the contrast may call for careful spacing and sufficient rendering quality.
