A high-contrast serif with tapered, flaring stroke endings and crisp, wedge-like terminals. The design shows a strong vertical stress with sharp hairlines and fuller stems, producing a lively thick–thin rhythm. Serifs read as finely bracketed and often triangular, with pointed joins on diagonals and a slightly calligraphic construction in letters like K, V, W, and y. Round forms are compact and controlled, while capitals present a stately, inscriptional presence with clean geometry and confident spacing.
This font is well-suited to headlines, decks, and pull quotes where contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It can support upscale branding and packaging, as well as book covers and editorial layouts that want a classic, cultivated tone. In longer passages, it will look best when given comfortable size and leading to preserve clarity around the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, with a distinctly editorial sophistication. Its pronounced contrast and sharp terminals add drama and formality, suggesting luxury and seriousness without feeling overly ornate. The texture on the page feels poised and deliberate, suited to high-end presentation.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif authority with a more expressive, flared finishing, creating a distinctive silhouette for display and editorial typography. Its contrast-driven rhythm and precise terminals suggest an aim for sophistication and strong typographic voice in prominent settings.
Counters are relatively tight in several forms, which reinforces a dense, authoritative color in text. Numerals follow the same contrast and flare logic, with strong silhouettes and clear differentiation. The type’s sharp hairlines and pointed details are most striking at display sizes, where the tapering and flare become a key part of its character.
