A high-contrast serif with sharp, wedge-like terminals and softly bracketed transitions where strokes meet. The letterforms show a calligraphic tension: thick verticals and hairline joins, with pointed beaks and tapered ends on arms and diagonals. Round characters are slightly oval with tight apertures, and the overall texture reads crisp and formal at display sizes. Numerals and capitals feel sturdy and traditional, while lowercase forms maintain a measured rhythm with distinctive, sculpted terminals.
It works particularly well for headlines, deck copy, and pull quotes where the contrast and crisp terminals can be appreciated. The style also fits magazine typography, book covers, and branding applications that need a traditional, high-end serif voice.
The font conveys a poised, editorial tone with a classical, bookish character. Its sharp terminals and strong contrast add a sense of ceremony and authority, making it feel suitable for serious, cultivated messaging rather than casual or playful settings.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif proportions with a more sculpted, flared-terminal finish, producing a refined display serif that still feels rooted in traditional text typography. The goal seems to be strong presence and elegance in titles and editorial settings while maintaining disciplined structure and legibility.
The sharp stroke endings and flared/triangular terminal shapes give many letters a carved, inscriptional edge, while the bracketing keeps it from feeling purely Didone. Spacing in the samples appears relatively even and controlled, supporting clean headline composition and short-form reading.
