A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, wedge-like serifs that often flare outward from the stems. Curves are smooth and full, while many joins and terminals narrow to sharp points, giving the letters a carved, chiseled feel. The overall rhythm is steady and vertical, with compact counters and a sturdy baseline presence; numerals and capitals read especially strong, while lowercase maintains clear, traditional proportions.
It performs best in display and larger text sizes where the contrast and sharp serif detail can be appreciated, such as magazine headlines, book covers, pull quotes, and premium branding. It can also work for short passages or section headers in editorial layouts when ample size and spacing preserve the fine hairlines.
The font conveys a confident, formal tone with an old-world, bookish character. Its sharp serifs and dramatic contrast create a sense of ceremony and authority, suitable for messaging that should feel established and trustworthy.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic, high-impact serif voice with flared, wedge-like finishing that heightens drama and definition. It prioritizes strong silhouette and typographic presence, making text feel refined and declarative.
Several glyphs show distinctly tapered strokes and pointed apexes, reinforcing a flared, calligraphic influence rather than blunt slab endings. The set maintains consistent contrast and serif treatment across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive, headline-forward texture in the sample text.
