A sculpted serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and a distinctly flared, wedge-like finishing to many strokes. Serifs read as sharply bracketed and tapered rather than blocky, giving terminals a cut, chiseled feel. Curves are generous and smoothly tensioned (notably in C, G, O, S), while verticals are sturdy and crisp, producing a strong, print-forward texture. Uppercase proportions feel traditional and stately; lowercase shows compact, sturdy forms with clearly defined bowls and a single-storey g with a pronounced ear. Numerals match the same engraved rhythm, with clear modulation and sturdy main strokes.
This font is well suited to headlines, deck copy, editorial layouts, book and magazine typography, and cover work where a strong serif voice is desired. It can also serve branding and packaging that benefit from a classic, high-impact look, especially at display sizes where the flared details read clearly.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, with a classic, authoritative presence. Its high-contrast, flared details add a touch of drama and refinement that evokes book typography and traditional publishing rather than utilitarian UI styling.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif structure with sharper, flared stroke endings to deliver a distinctive, print-oriented voice. It prioritizes presence and elegance in display and editorial contexts, aiming for a refined but assertive typographic color.
In text, the heavy color and sharp serifs create a confident, headline-friendly rhythm, while the contrast and pointed terminals can feel energetic at larger sizes. The design maintains consistent modulation across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping mixed-case settings look cohesive and deliberate.
