A robust serif with sculpted, flaring stroke terminals and sharply cut triangular serifs that feel chiseled rather than flat. Contrast is pronounced, with thick verticals and noticeably thinner joins and cross-strokes, producing a crisp, engraved rhythm. Proportions are broad and stable, with open counters and rounded bowls that stay dense without clogging in the sample text. Curves transition into stems with a subtle swelling, and many letters show wedge-like finishing cuts that add bite and definition at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, cover lines, and short passages where the sculpted terminals and strong contrast can be appreciated. It also fits book covers, mastheads, and branding systems that want a classic, authoritative voice. For longer text, it works most comfortably at larger sizes where the sharp serifs and inner details remain clear.
The tone reads authoritative and traditional, with an editorial gravitas that suggests classic print and institutional materials. Its dramatic thick–thin interplay and crisp terminals give it a confident, slightly theatrical presence while remaining controlled and formal.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif letterforms with a more carved, flared finishing language, delivering an upscale editorial feel with strong impact. It aims for presence and hierarchy—legible and structured, but with enough stroke drama to stand out in display typography.
The uppercase feels monumental and steady, while the lowercase introduces more calligraphic modulation—especially in the bowls and shoulders—creating a lively texture in paragraphs. Numerals appear sturdy and readable with clear shapes and strong baseline presence, matching the overall weight and contrast of the text.
