A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are sharp and slightly flared, often ending in triangular or wedge-like terminals that give the outlines a chiseled, engraved feel. Curves are smooth and fairly compact, while joins and diagonals stay clean and decisive; counters are moderately open and the overall texture reads dark and authoritative in text. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven logic, with strong vertical emphasis and pointed finishing strokes.
Well-suited to long-form reading in print-oriented layouts, such as books and magazine articles, where its contrast and crisp serifs create an elegant page color. It also performs strongly for headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding applications that benefit from a traditional, authoritative voice.
The font conveys a classic, editorial tone—polished and serious, with a touch of drama from its sharp terminals and strong contrast. It feels literary and institutional, suited to settings where tradition and clarity should read as deliberate and confident.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with elevated sharpness and contrast, aiming to combine familiar, bookish proportions with more assertive, sculpted terminals for extra presence in editorial typography.
Uppercase forms show a dignified, stately posture with stable proportions, while lowercase maintains a conventional, readable rhythm and a slightly compact footprint. The italic is not shown; the sample suggests the design relies on contrast and terminal shaping, rather than unusual proportions, to create its personality.
