A calligraphic serif with sharp, flared terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes taper into wedge-like points and small blade serifs, giving many letters a subtly chiseled, pen-cut look rather than rounded bracketed serifs. The proportions are open and slightly expanded, with generous interior counters and a steady upright stance; curves are smooth but often finish in pointed spur details. Numerals follow the same logic with high contrast and crisp, angled endings.
Best suited to headlines, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, and editorial display where its contrast and pointed terminals can be appreciated. It also fits formal invitations, certificates, and premium packaging or labeling that benefits from a refined, traditional feel. For long-form body text, it will generally read more comfortably at moderate sizes where the sharp details don’t dominate.
The overall tone is classical and formal, with a slightly dramatic, storybook elegance. Its pointed terminals and rhythmic contrast evoke traditional inscriptional and manuscript influences, lending a refined, literary character that feels ceremonial rather than casual.
Likely designed to capture the look of formal pen lettering with an inscriptional edge—combining wide, open proportions with crisp, tapered terminals for a decorative yet legible display voice.
In text, the font maintains an even color despite the sharp terminal behavior, but the spiky details and high contrast become a defining texture at larger sizes. The widened shapes and open counters help preserve clarity, while the distinctive wedges add personality to headings and short passages.
