A serifed, calligraphic text face with moderate stroke modulation and clearly chiseled, wedge-like serifs and terminals. The forms lean on classical proportions with a steady vertical stance, while many strokes show gentle tapering and angled entries/exits that suggest broad-nib influence. Counters are generally open and round, and the overall rhythm is lively but controlled, with crisp joins and a slightly organic edge to curves and diagonals.
Well-suited for editorial typography, book or long-form reading where a classical, crafted tone is desired. It also works effectively for invitations, certificates, academic or institutional materials, and brand identities seeking a traditional voice with calligraphic nuance. In display sizes it can add gravitas to headlines and pull quotes, while remaining controlled enough for short paragraphs.
This typeface conveys a formal, old-world confidence with a subtly human touch. The calligraphic modulation and tapered terminals give it a crafted, literary tone that feels traditional, ceremonial, and slightly dramatic without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to bring calligraphic character to a readable serif structure, balancing tradition with a hand-shaped finish. Its tapered strokes and wedge serifs aim to add authority and warmth, making the text feel composed and historically grounded rather than purely mechanical.
Uppercase letters read as stately and monument-like, with prominent wedge terminals, while lowercase maintains a smooth text rhythm with noticeable tapering on ascenders and joins. Numerals follow the same chiseled, calligraphic logic, helping them integrate cleanly in text and headings.
