A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that give the outlines a chiseled, engraved feel. Stems transition quickly from thick to thin, with sharp hairlines and pronounced bracketed joins that create a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Counters are relatively compact and the overall silhouette is slightly condensed in many letters, which increases density and impact. Curves and diagonals terminate in tapered points or small triangular feet, and round letters show strong internal contrast that reads as crisp and formal at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion or culture editorials, posters, and book or album covers where its contrast and flared details can be appreciated. It can also serve in premium branding applications—logos, packaging, and title treatments—where a formal, heritage-leaning voice is desired.
The tone is assertive and ceremonial, mixing classical bookishness with a dramatic, poster-ready presence. Its sharp contrast and flared details add a sense of luxury and tradition, while the energetic terminals keep it from feeling purely austere.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classical serif forms through a flared, calligraphy-informed construction, emphasizing contrast, taper, and sculptural terminals for strong visual authority in large sizes.
In longer settings the weight and contrast produce a dark, rhythmic texture with noticeable sparkle from the hairlines, suggesting it is most comfortable when given generous size and breathing room. The numerals and caps share the same sculptural wedge vocabulary, supporting cohesive headline systems.
