A compact serif with subtly flared stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that grow out of the stems rather than sitting as flat slabs. Strokes stay relatively even in weight with gentle modulation, producing clean, crisp letterforms and a steady typographic color. The proportions are tall and condensed, with narrow rounds and tight internal counters, while terminals and joins show a restrained calligraphic influence. Overall rhythm is vertical and orderly, with neatly cut serifs and slightly tapering strokes that keep forms sharp at display sizes.
Well-suited to headlines and subheads where a refined serif voice is needed in limited horizontal space. It can serve effectively for editorial titling, book-cover typography, and magazine display settings that benefit from a classic, formal texture and crisp detailing.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish tone with an editorial polish. Its narrow stance and crisp flaring details feel dignified and serious, leaning toward classic publishing and institutional aesthetics rather than casual or playful use.
Likely designed to offer a condensed, traditional serif with understated personality, using flared stroke endings to add warmth and distinction while preserving a disciplined, readable structure for display typography.
In the sample text, the narrow proportions create efficient line length while maintaining a recognizable serif texture. Capitals appear authoritative and sculpted, and the lowercase keeps a disciplined, upright cadence; the flared endings add character without introducing heavy contrast or overt ornament.
