A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and weighty stems, showing a distinctly calligraphic modulation. Serifs are predominantly bracketed with sharp, wedge-like entry and exit cuts that give the letters a carved, print-like finish. Many curves terminate in soft ball or teardrop terminals (notably in the lowercase), adding a slightly decorative, old-style flavor despite the overall upright stance. Proportions are generous and the spacing reads open, with robust capitals and a lowercase that keeps a steady, readable rhythm while letting stroke contrast drive the texture.
Best suited to editorial and display applications where contrast and sculpted serif detail can be appreciated—magazine headlines, book covers, posters, and brand or packaging lockups. It can also serve as a strong secondary text face for short passages such as introductions, captions, or pull quotes when set with comfortable size and leading.
The tone is authoritative and editorial, combining classical refinement with a slightly theatrical edge from the pronounced contrast and expressive terminals. It feels traditional and bookish, yet bold enough to read as statement typography for headlines and pull quotes.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif structure with heightened contrast and refined terminal detailing, creating a classic yet attention-grabbing voice for contemporary editorial and branding contexts.
Uppercase forms are broad and steady with pronounced thick–thin transitions, while the lowercase introduces more personality through rounded terminals and subtly flared joins. Numerals match the display-forward character with strong contrast and sculpted curves, producing a lively, ink-trap-free silhouette that stays clean at larger sizes.
