A sharp, high-contrast serif with sculpted, wedge-like terminals and finely bracketed serifs. Strokes show a clear thick–thin rhythm and a slightly calligraphic modulation, producing crisp joins and tapered ends rather than blunt cuts. Proportions feel on the generous side with open counters and a steady, readable texture; round letters are full and the overall color stays even despite the strong contrast. The numerals and capitals echo the same chiseled finishing, giving headings a polished, engraved look while remaining suitable for continuous text.
Well-suited to magazines, book typography, and long-form editorial layouts where a refined serif texture is desired. It also performs strongly for headlines, pull quotes, and title treatments that benefit from crisp contrast and classical finishing.
The tone is traditional and editorial, with a confident, cultivated presence that reads as literary and slightly formal. Its sharp terminals and elegant contrast add a touch of drama without tipping into ornate display styling.
The design appears intended as a conventional, versatile text serif with an elevated, modern editorial edge—pairing familiar book-face proportions with sharper, more incisive terminals to add character in both reading sizes and display settings.
The sample text shows consistent spacing and a stable baseline rhythm, with pointed apexes and subtly flared strokes that help maintain clarity at larger sizes. Diacritics and punctuation are not shown; the impression is driven by the clean serif detailing and balanced internal shapes.
