A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered, flaring terminals that broaden subtly as strokes meet the baseline and cap line. Serifs are sharp and delicately bracketed, with a sculpted, slightly calligraphic construction that shows in curved joins and pointed apexes. Proportions feel classical and open, with smooth, rounded bowls, a narrow waist in the “W,” and energetic diagonals that keep the texture lively without becoming noisy. The numerals follow the same high-contrast rhythm, with elegant curves and tapered entries that read cleanly at display sizes.
Well-suited to magazines, books, and cultural or academic materials where an elegant serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and brand marks that benefit from high-contrast refinement and distinctive, flared finishing strokes.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking editorial sophistication and a sense of tradition. Its crisp hairlines and flared endings add a touch of formality and ceremony, while the lively curves keep it personable rather than austere.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary take on a classical, high-contrast serif, emphasizing sharp, flared terminals and crisp detailing for an upscale editorial presence. The shapes balance tradition with a slightly calligraphic touch to remain expressive and memorable in prominent settings.
In text, the strong contrast creates a bright page color with clear vertical emphasis; fine details and hairlines suggest it will look best when given adequate size and printing or rendering quality. The italic is not shown, and the displayed forms lean toward display-led detailing even while maintaining an even, composed rhythm across longer lines.
