A serif typeface with flared, wedge-like terminals that broaden at stroke ends, giving an inscribed, carved impression. Strokes show noticeable contrast between thick verticals and thinner joins, with sharp apexes and triangular serifs on both capitals and lowercase. Counters are generally open and round, while joins and terminals stay crisp, producing a steady, print-oriented rhythm. Numerals and punctuation-like shapes (where visible) follow the same angular terminal logic, and the overall spacing reads balanced for text settings.
Well-suited to editorial design, book typography, and other long-form reading contexts where a classic serif texture is desired. The distinctive flared terminals also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and identity work that benefits from an engraved, heritage-leaning voice. It can work nicely in packaging and labels where a formal, established tone is important.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a refined, slightly monumental character reminiscent of engraved or stone-cut lettering. It feels formal and editorial rather than casual, projecting clarity and seriousness while still retaining a distinctive, chiseled personality.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif readability with a more sculpted, inscribed finish through flared terminals and sharp wedge serifs. It aims for a classic text-friendly structure while adding a distinctive, crafted surface character for display emphasis when needed.
Capitals present strong, stable silhouettes with pronounced wedge endings, while lowercase maintains a compact, disciplined texture that stays dark and even in paragraphs. The design’s sharp terminals and flaring can create a lively sparkle at larger sizes, while at smaller sizes it reads as a confident, high-contrast text face.
