A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sturdy verticals that taper into flared, bracketed endings. Serifs read as sharp and sculpted rather than slabby, with a slightly calligraphic stress that gives round letters a refined, vertical emphasis. Proportions feel compact and weighty, with relatively tight apertures and crisp joins that create strong interior shapes. Uppercase forms are commanding and stately, while the lowercase keeps a traditional book-face rhythm with a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between stems, bowls, and terminals.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine and book titling, and brand marks that benefit from a strong, elegant serif voice. It can work for short text passages in editorial layouts, especially when generous leading and size are used to preserve clarity and let the contrast breathe.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, conveying luxury and seriousness with a slightly theatrical punch. Its sharp contrast and sculpted details suggest premium publishing, culture, and heritage contexts rather than casual utility.
The design appears intended to merge classic serif conventions with more sculptural, flared stroke endings to produce a distinctive, upscale presence. It prioritizes dramatic contrast and a compact, authoritative rhythm for impactful typography in print-like settings.
At text sizes the dark color and tight counters can build density, while at display sizes the flared endings and bracketing become a defining feature. Numerals and capitals share the same confident, high-contrast structure, supporting headline-like settings where impact and refinement are both desired.
