A compact, tall-proportioned serif with noticeably flared terminals that broaden into sharp, wedge-like endings. Strokes show clear modulation, with crisp joins and a slightly calligraphic tension through curves and diagonals. Capitals are narrow and stately, while lowercase forms sit on a relatively small x-height with long ascenders and descenders, giving lines a high-contrast rhythm and a vertically driven texture. Numerals are similarly slender and stylized, matching the pointed, tapered finishing throughout.
Best suited for headlines, titles, and short passages where its slender proportions and flared terminals can be appreciated. It can add a distinctive voice to editorial styling, book covers, posters, and branding systems that want a classical foundation with extra drama and personality.
The font reads as theatrical and literary, mixing classical refinement with a slightly quirky, storybook edge. Its narrow, spiky detailing and flared endings create a poised but expressive voice that feels suited to dramatic titles and characterful brand moments rather than neutral text setting.
The design appears intended to reinterpret traditional serif construction through pronounced flaring and tapered, calligraphic finishing, producing a compact display face that feels both classical and expressive. It prioritizes a distinctive silhouette and rhythmic vertical texture over neutral, long-form readability.
In running text the tight proportions and prominent verticality produce a dense, elegant color; the sharp terminals and compact counters make it most comfortable at display sizes or with generous spacing. The overall style stays consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, with repeated use of tapered strokes and knife-like finishing as a defining motif.
