A high-contrast serif with sculpted, slightly flared terminals and crisp wedge-like serifs. The letterforms show pronounced thick–thin modulation, with narrow joins and generous inner curves that give counters an elegant, open feel. Serifs are finely bracketed rather than slabby, and many strokes taper into pointed, calligraphic endings (notably in diagonals and arms). Overall proportions read traditional and text-ready, with confident capitals and a steady rhythm in lowercase.
This design is well suited to magazine typography, book covers, and headline systems where contrast and sculpted detailing can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding, packaging, and identity work that benefits from a classical, high-end voice. In paragraph settings it should work best with comfortable leading and sizes that preserve its thin hairlines.
The typeface conveys an editorial, refined tone with a hint of drama from its sharp tapers and strong contrast. It feels formal and cultured—suited to sophisticated branding and publication settings—while staying composed enough for extended reading at display-to-text sizes.
The font appears designed to merge classical serif proportions with a more expressive, flared finishing language, creating a polished face that reads as both traditional and contemporary. Its emphasis on contrast, sharp terminals, and controlled rhythm suggests an intention to perform strongly in editorial and brand-led display typography while remaining credible for text.
Capitals are stately and slightly wide-set, with clean, sharp apexes and carefully balanced curves (especially in C/G/O/Q). Lowercase forms keep a classic serif structure with distinct two-storey shapes where expected and teardrop-like terminals that add sparkle in words. Numerals match the contrast and tapering behavior, with elegant curves and pronounced finishing strokes.
