A high-contrast serif with sculpted, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation throughout. The letters show a slightly condensed, vertical stance with crisp hairlines, sharp joins, and lively curves that often end in teardrop/ball terminals (notably in the lowercase). Counters are relatively tight and the overall color is dark, with strong rhythm created by stout vertical stems and delicate connecting strokes. Numerals and capitals feel stately and monumental, while the lowercase adds character through flared strokes and bulb-like terminals.
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, and display typography where its contrast and sculpted details can be appreciated. It can also support editorial settings such as magazine titles and book covers, and works for branding that wants a classic, high-end impression.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, leaning toward a refined, bookish authority with a touch of theatrical drama. Its contrast and dark presence give it a premium, emphatic voice suited to classic publishing and sophisticated branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with heightened contrast and distinctive terminal styling, producing an assertive, premium texture for editorial and display use.
In text, the pronounced contrast and narrow internal spaces create a dense, punchy texture that reads as confident and formal at larger sizes. The design’s distinctive terminals and sharp details are most noticeable in the lowercase, which lends a slightly idiosyncratic, expressive finish without departing from a conventional serif structure.
