A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered, flaring stroke endings that give stems a subtly sculpted feel. Serifs are bracketed and fairly sharp, with wedge-like finishing on many terminals, producing a lively, slightly calligraphic rhythm without losing overall restraint. Proportions are traditional and balanced: uppercase forms feel steady and slightly wide, while lowercase shows moderate x-height, open bowls, and clear counters. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and confident verticals suited to display and large text.
Well suited to magazine and newspaper-style headlines, pull quotes, and book or report titling where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also fits branding and packaging that needs a formal, premium tone, and works effectively in larger-size editorial typography where its contrast and flared endings can be appreciated.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with an editorial sophistication that reads as established and authoritative. Its sharp, flared detailing adds a hint of drama and ceremony, making the texture feel refined rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif proportions with flared, tapered terminals to add elegance and momentum. It aims for a polished editorial look that feels established and readable while offering enough sharp detail to stand out in display settings.
At text sizes the strong contrast and pointed terminals create a distinctly patterned page color, with clear letter separation and prominent vertical stress. The design favors clean, decisive joins and terminals, giving headlines a poised, formal presence.
