A crisp, high-contrast serif with subtly flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that create a gently calligraphic texture. Stems feel sturdy while hairlines stay fine, producing a sharp, print-like rhythm. Proportions are fairly traditional with moderate capitals and a normal x-height; curves are smoothly drawn and counters are open. Details like pointed apexes, tapered terminals, and diamond-shaped i-dots add a distinctive, slightly ornamental finish without becoming decorative.
Well-suited to magazine and newspaper-style typography, book interiors, and formal communications where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for display roles—headlines, pull quotes, and branding—where its contrast and flared details can add distinction at larger sizes.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with an editorial polish that suggests bookish seriousness and heritage. Its sharp contrast and flared endings add a touch of ceremony, making it feel refined and slightly dramatic while remaining readable.
Likely designed to blend classic serif conventions with a flared, ink-influenced finish, delivering a typeface that reads confidently in text while offering enough character for editorial and brand-led display work.
The italic is not shown; the displayed style maintains an even, upright stance with careful modulation between thick and thin. Numerals and caps carry the same contrast-driven logic, giving headings a stately presence, while the lowercase maintains a lively, subtly calligraphic bite in continuous text.
