A high-contrast serif with crisp, finely tapered hairlines and sturdy vertical stems. Serifs are sharp and generally bracketed, giving the letterforms a chiseled, engraved feel while keeping the overall construction conventional and highly legible. Proportions are slightly narrow-to-moderate with clear modulation between thick and thin, and the numerals follow the same refined contrast and vertical stress. Lowercase forms show compact, readable counters and a measured x-height, with tidy terminals and clean joins that hold up well in larger text settings.
Well-suited to headlines, deck copy, and pull quotes where contrast and crisp serifs can be appreciated. It also fits editorial design, book and magazine typography, and brand identities that aim for a classic, high-end impression, particularly at medium to large sizes.
The tone is traditional and polished, projecting seriousness and credibility with a touch of drama from the strong contrast. It feels at home in established, literary contexts where a confident, refined voice is desired rather than a casual or contemporary one.
Likely intended as a modern, high-contrast text-serif for contemporary editorial and display typography, combining conventional proportions with sharpened details for impact. The design emphasizes elegance and authority through vertical stress, crisp serifs, and pronounced thick–thin modulation.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and sharp serifs create an energetic rhythm and pronounced word shapes, especially in bold headings. The overall texture is dense and stately, with the thinnest strokes contributing sparkle while the heavy main stems keep the color solid.
