A flared serif text face with wedge-like terminals that broaden into sharp, triangular serifs rather than flat slabs. Strokes are steady and low-contrast, with subtly tapered joins and a gently calligraphic logic in the curves. Capitals are broad and stately, while the lowercase keeps an even rhythm with open bowls and clear counters; the serifs add presence without becoming brittle. Figures appear lining with sculpted shapes and pointed terminals that echo the serif treatment, giving numerals a slightly engraved, traditional feel.
Works well for editorial typography, book or long-form reading, and classical-themed headlines where a stable, traditional voice is needed. The strong wedge serifs also suit formal branding, certificates, and invitations, especially when paired with generous spacing and high-contrast layout photography or ornament.
The overall tone is classical and literary, suggesting printed tradition rather than modern minimalism. The flared endings and wedge serifs lend a ceremonial, slightly monumental character that reads as confident and established. It feels suited to refined, editorial contexts where a touch of historical warmth is welcome.
The design appears intended to blend dependable text readability with a distinctive flared-serif signature. By keeping contrast restrained and proportions broad, it aims for a calm page texture, while the sharpened terminals provide recognizable character for titles and formal settings.
Serif treatment is consistently sharp and angular across caps, lowercase, and numerals, creating a crisp silhouette at display sizes while maintaining a steady text color in paragraphs. Round letters (like O/C/G) keep generous interior space, helping the face avoid heaviness despite the pronounced terminals.
