A high-contrast serif with broad proportions and sculpted, flaring stroke endings that read like tapered wedges rather than flat slabs. The verticals are robust while hairlines stay crisp, creating strong light–dark rhythm and pronounced internal whitespace. Serifs and terminals are sharp and angular, with pointed beaks and triangular cuts that give many forms a chiseled, faceted feel. Bowls and curves are generous and rounded, while joins and shoulders resolve into crisp corners, producing a lively, display-forward texture.
Best suited for headlines, magazine typography, poster titles, and brand marks where its contrast and carved terminals can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for short subheads and pull quotes, especially when strong hierarchy and a premium, editorial finish are desired.
The overall tone is assertive and theatrical, balancing classic bookish cues with a more fashion/editorial sharpness. Its strong contrast and flared detailing lend a refined, slightly ceremonial character that feels premium and attention-seeking without becoming ornamental.
The font appears designed to deliver a bold, high-impact serif voice with a distinctive flared-terminal signature, emphasizing elegance through contrast and a sculptural, cut-from-stone finishing. It prioritizes presence and stylized rhythm for display settings while keeping letterforms broadly traditional and readable.
The design shows a deliberate interplay of heavy vertical masses and thin connecting strokes, making counters and apertures a key part of the visual identity. Numerals and capitals carry the same sculpted, wedge-terminal language, helping mixed typography stay cohesive in headlines.
