A high-contrast serif with tapered, flared terminals and wedge-like serifs that broaden from slender stems. The letterforms show a calligraphic modulation: thin hairlines and pronounced thick-to-thin transitions, with crisp joins and subtly bracketed serif connections. Proportions feel slightly condensed in places with generous ascenders and clear counters, while spacing and rhythm stay even in text. Numerals and capitals maintain the same sharp, chiseled finish, giving the overall design a clean, engraved texture.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where contrast and refined detailing can be appreciated at comfortable sizes. It also works effectively for pull quotes, section heads, and elegant brand typography that benefits from a classic, print-forward voice.
The tone is poised and traditional, evoking book typography and formal print. Its sharp terminals and sculpted contrast add a sense of sophistication and ceremony, leaning more literary than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif readability with a more sculpted, flared finishing, delivering a contemporary take on traditional book and editorial forms. Its controlled contrast and consistent wedge terminals suggest an aim for polished, premium typography across text and display settings.
Lowercase forms read cleanly in continuous text, with a relatively open construction and distinct silhouettes that keep characters separable. The flared endings and wedge serifs remain consistent across cases, creating a unified, slightly dramatic sparkle on the baseline and cap line.
