A bold, high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring terminals and strongly bracketed serifs that read as chiseled and calligraphy-informed rather than purely mechanical. Round forms are generously wide with tight inner counters, while verticals dominate the rhythm; joins and transitions show distinct swelling and tapering that emphasizes stroke direction. The lowercase keeps a traditional, readable structure with sturdy bowls and compact apertures, and the numerals follow the same carved, tapered logic for a cohesive set.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and editorial titling, book covers, and branding where a strong, carved serif voice is desired. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes, especially when generous leading and tracking are used to keep the heavy color from closing in.
The overall tone is authoritative and editorial, with a classic print sensibility and a slightly theatrical, poster-ready punch. Its flared details and sharp tapering add a formal, crafted feeling that can lean historic or literary without becoming delicate.
The design appears intended to combine traditional serif proportions with flared, calligraphic endings to deliver a bold, high-impact display serif that still feels rooted in classic typography. It prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and a dramatic page color for attention and authority.
At display sizes the flare and tapering create lively texture and recognizable silhouettes, especially in letters with diagonals and curved joins. In dense settings the dark color and compact counters can build strong emphasis, so spacing and size will heavily influence readability.
