A tightly set serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and compact proportions. Stems are robust and vertical, while curved strokes pinch into hairlines, giving counters a crisp, carved feel. Serifs are wedge-like and bracketed, with a subtly flared transition where strokes terminate, and many letters show sharp, tapered ends rather than blunt cuts. Overall rhythm is firm and even, with clear baseline alignment, moderate apertures, and a slightly condensed stance that keeps words visually dense in text.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, book and magazine covers, and branding that needs a classic serif voice with strong contrast. It can also serve in posters and pull quotes where dense, impactful text is desirable, especially at larger sizes where the hairlines and flared terminals can be appreciated.
The font conveys a classic, assertive tone with a refined, slightly dramatic contrast that reads as confident and institutional. Its sculpted terminals and traditional serif detailing suggest heritage and formality, while the compact footprint gives it an economical, headline-ready presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif presence with a compact footprint and emphatic contrast, balancing readability with a display-oriented sharpness.
