A high-contrast serif with pronounced flaring where stems meet terminals, producing sharp triangular wedge serifs and a carved, sculptural look. Vertical strokes are strong and straight while curves tighten into narrow joins, giving counters a compact, slightly tense rhythm. Serifs are crisp and angled rather than slab-like, and many letters show tapered stroke endings that read as chiseled points. The lowercase keeps a traditional, bookish structure with sturdy bowls and a steady x-height, while the overall fit feels generously spaced and display-oriented.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short passages where contrast and sharp serif detailing can be appreciated. It works well for editorial design, book or magazine titling, cultural posters, and branding that needs a classic yet assertive voice.
The tone is emphatic and literary, with a sense of old-world authority and theatrical contrast. Its sharp flares and decisive joins convey confidence and gravity, making text feel ceremonial and headline-driven rather than casual.
The design appears intended to modernize a traditional serif by emphasizing flared stroke endings and crisp wedge serifs, creating a bold, high-impact texture for display typography while retaining familiar, readable letterforms.
In the sample text, the heavy weight and tight inner counters create strong word shapes and a dark typographic color; at smaller sizes the dense joins and pointed terminals may benefit from extra leading and careful tracking. Numerals follow the same sharp, flared logic, keeping the set cohesive for headings and prominent figures.
