This serif shows strong thick–thin contrast with a predominantly vertical stress and crisp, tapered detailing. Stems and joins often widen subtly into flared, wedge-like endings, while the serifs read as sharply cut and lightly bracketed rather than blocky. The proportions are compact and columnar, with tall capitals and relatively slender rounds; counters are clean and open, and the rhythm is steady but slightly dynamic due to the tapered strokes. In text, the face stays crisp and structured, with a prominent baseline presence and clear letter differentiation.
It performs best in headlines, magazine titles, book covers, and other editorial contexts where its contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It can also support branding and identity work that calls for a classic, refined voice, especially when paired with a simpler companion for body copy.
The overall tone is formal and polished, with a touch of theatrical sharpness from the high-contrast strokes and pointed terminals. It feels literary and authoritative, suited to settings where a sense of tradition and sophistication is desired without looking overly ornamental.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif structure with flared, tapered stroke endings that add tension and sparkle. The goal seems to be a refined display serif that remains legible and disciplined while offering a distinctive, slightly calligraphic edge.
The numerals and capitals carry strong verticality and a poster-like clarity, while the lowercase introduces more calligraphic nuance in terminals and curves. The combination of tight proportions and pronounced contrast gives the type a distinctive, dressy color on the page, especially at display sizes.
