A crisp, high-contrast serif with sculpted, slightly flared stroke endings and sharply bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and generous, while verticals feel taut and dominant, creating a formal rhythm with clear thick–thin modulation. The capitals are stately and well-proportioned with pronounced hairlines, and the lowercase maintains a balanced, readable texture with clean joins and confident terminals. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and display a traditional, print-oriented silhouette.
Well-suited for magazine and journal typography, book jackets, and titling where crisp contrast can carry a premium feel. It can also support sophisticated brand identities and packaging that benefit from a classic serif voice. In text settings it creates an elegant page tone, while in display it delivers sharp, refined impact.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, with a quiet sense of luxury. It reads as cultured and editorial—suited to contexts where sophistication and clarity matter more than neutrality. The sharp detailing and contrast add drama without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif conventions with subtly flared, calligraphic shaping, producing a contemporary editorial face that still feels rooted in print tradition. Its contrast and precise terminals prioritize elegance and hierarchy, aiming to perform confidently in headlines, pull quotes, and polished long-form typography.
Pointed, wedge-like terminals appear in several forms (notably in diagonals and curved strokes), reinforcing a chiseled, engraved impression. Spacing in the sample text produces an even, bookish color, while the contrast and fine hairlines suggest it will look best when given enough size and quality reproduction to preserve detail.
