A bold, high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke terminals that read like wedge-shaped serifs. Stems are sturdy and mostly vertical, while joins and endings show subtle calligraphic modulation, producing crisp triangular entry/exit cuts on many strokes. The uppercase forms feel stately and compact with strong horizontals and pronounced terminals; the lowercase carries a traditional book-face rhythm with a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between counters and apertures. Numerals are weighty and old-style in spirit, with distinctive curves and tapered finishing strokes that match the serif language.
Best suited for headlines, magazine titles, and book-cover typography where its contrast and flared serifs can read as intentional and premium. It also works well for branding and display copy that needs a formal, traditional voice, while longer text is most comfortable at generous sizes due to the strong stroke contrast and sharp terminals.
The overall tone is editorial and authoritative, mixing classical book typography with a slightly theatrical sharpness from the flared terminals. It feels confident and traditional, suited to messaging that wants heritage, seriousness, and a touch of drama rather than neutrality.
The design appears intended to modernize a classical serif structure with flared, chiseled terminals for extra impact in display settings. It aims for a refined, heritage-led presence with strong typographic color and clear, emphatic letterforms.
Round letters (C, O, Q) show pronounced thick–thin transitions, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) end in sharp, chiseled points that reinforce the engraved look. The design maintains a consistent flare motif across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving headings a cohesive, emphatic texture.
