A high-contrast serif with strongly modulated strokes and sharp, tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketed and smoothly blended into stems, giving the forms a carved, editorial finish rather than slab-like heft. Uppercase shapes are broad with generous internal counters and a steady, upright posture; diagonals (V, W, X) are steep and clean, and the Q features a distinct, sweeping tail. The lowercase shows a traditional, text-oriented construction with a two-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and a curved, descending j with a rounded terminal. Numerals are similarly high-contrast with prominent curves and wedge-like finishing details, creating a consistent rhythm across letters and figures.
Well suited to magazine and editorial headlines, book and journal covers, and brand identities that want a classic serif voice. It also fits formal print materials such as invitations and certificates, and works effectively for short passages or pull quotes where its contrast and detailing can be appreciated.
The overall tone is classical and polished, with a distinctly editorial seriousness. Its sharp contrast and crisp detailing feel premium and authoritative, lending a sense of tradition and ceremony without becoming overly ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif texture with elevated contrast and carefully shaped terminals, aiming for a timeless, premium feel. Its proportions and crisp finishing suggest an emphasis on impactful titles and sophisticated typographic hierarchy.
At larger sizes the fine hairlines and tight joins read especially elegant, while the broad, open counters help maintain clarity in dense settings. The italic is not shown, and the style presented reads as a confident, display-leaning roman suited to prominent typography.
