A sculpted serif with pronounced contrast between thick verticals and hairline joins, set on a steady, upright rhythm. Serifs are tapered and slightly flared with crisp terminals, giving strokes a chiseled, ink-trap-free finish rather than blunt slabs. Capitals are sturdy and somewhat wide with strong vertical emphasis, while lowercase forms show compact apertures and a solid, dark color; the two-storey a and g and the bracketed joins reinforce a traditional book-face structure. Numerals are weighty and formal, with clear thick–thin modulation and sharp finishing details that hold up well in display sizes.
This font is well suited to headlines and short-form editorial typography where strong contrast and crisp serifs can carry the layout. It also fits book covers, magazine titles, and promotional posters that need a classical, authoritative presence. For longer passages, it will perform best at comfortable text sizes with adequate leading to preserve clarity of the fine strokes.
The overall tone is formal and literary, with a confident, old-style gravitas that feels at home in publishing. Its sharp, high-contrast modeling adds drama and a sense of refinement, reading as premium and editorial rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened contrast and tapered, flared finishing, aiming for a premium publishing feel. Its sturdy capitals and sculpted lowercase suggest a focus on impactful titling and editorial emphasis while retaining recognizable, classic letterforms.
In the sample text the heavy weight and tight internal counters create a strong typographic “voice,” especially in mixed-case lines; the design projects best when given generous size or spacing so the fine strokes and tapered serifs can breathe. The flared stroke endings and pointed terminals give it a distinctive, slightly incisive texture on the page.
