This serif features sharply tapered stems that broaden into flared, bracketed terminals, creating a sculpted, calligraphic feel. Curves are full and smoothly modeled, while joins and serifs stay crisp, producing a strong light–dark rhythm across words. Capitals read stately and controlled with pronounced vertical stress; lowercase shows compact, sturdy forms with energetic finishing strokes. Numerals and punctuation match the same chiseled contrast, with prominent foot serifs and decisive terminals that keep the texture lively in text and impactful at display sizes.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where the contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated. It also fits book covers and magazine typography that aims for a classic, literary tone, and can work for short-form text when set with comfortable leading and not too small.
The overall tone is editorial and classic, with a dramatic, print-forward presence. Its flared endings and high contrast suggest a literary, slightly formal voice—confident and refined rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif authority with a more expressive, flared-stem finish, delivering a distinctive page color and a memorable voice for editorial and display typography.
Spacing and stroke modulation create a busy, elegant texture that emphasizes verticals and accentuates word shapes. The sample text shows strong headline presence while maintaining recognizable letterforms for continuous reading, especially when given adequate size and leading.
