A sculpted serif with pronounced contrast and a subtly calligraphic construction. Stems are sturdy and expand into flared, wedge-like terminals, with bracketed joins that keep the transitions smooth rather than abrupt. Bowls and shoulders are generously rounded, while diagonals and arms finish in sharp, triangular endings that create lively sparkle in display sizes. The lowercase shows compact, weighty forms with distinctive teardrop-like terminals on letters such as a, c, e, and s, and a short, heavy crossbar on t; numerals are similarly bold and stylized, with a curving 2 and a distinctive, angled 4.
Well suited to headlines, cover typography, and branding where a classical yet distinctive serif voice is needed. It can work for pull quotes and short editorial passages, especially when generous size and leading allow its contrast and terminals to remain clear.
The overall tone feels editorial and heritage-leaning, with a dramatic, print-like presence. Its flared endings and sharp terminals add theatricality without becoming ornate, conveying confidence and a slightly vintage, bookish seriousness.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif proportions with flared, tapered finishing strokes to create a strong display presence. It emphasizes bold, high-contrast shapes and expressive terminals to deliver an authoritative, print-forward character.
Spacing reads open enough for short text, but the strong contrast and expressive terminals make the rhythm feel most at home at headline sizes. Uppercase forms have a stately, classical silhouette, while the lowercase introduces more personality through rounded forms and pointed, ink-trap-like inner shapes.
