A crisp serif with pronounced wedge serifs and beak-like terminals that give strokes a subtly chiseled, engraved feel. Curves are broad and smooth, while joins and terminals resolve into sharp triangular cuts, creating a distinctive rhythm across both capitals and lowercase. The letterforms feel generously set with open counters and sturdy verticals, and the overall construction stays consistent from rounded shapes (O, C, e) to diagonals (V, W, X, Y). Figures are clear and sturdy, with the same wedge-footed logic and slightly stylized shaping on bowls and diagonals.
Works well for headlines, subheads, and short-to-medium passages where the wedge serif detailing can be appreciated. It’s a solid choice for editorial layouts, book and magazine titling, cultural programming, and brand marks that want a classic serif foundation with distinctive terminal character.
The font conveys a traditional, authoritative tone with a decorative edge—classic enough for formal typography, but with sharpened terminals that add a mildly theatrical, old-world flavor. Its presence feels suited to established institutions and editorial design, while the carved details bring a touch of historical or fantasy-leaning character.
The design appears intended to modernize a traditional serif structure by emphasizing wedge serifs and sharpened, carved-looking terminals. This creates a readable, classic silhouette while adding a decorative signature that helps titles and branding stand apart.
Capital forms read particularly strong due to the emphatic wedge finishing, and several letters show deliberate terminal shaping that stands out at display sizes. In text, the sharp serif geometry adds texture and sparkle, especially on words with many diagonals and stems.
