Classic Symbol & Text Logo

I’m looking for a designer who can craft a timeless, classic-style logo that pairs an elegant symbol with clean, readable text. The brand is still under wraps, so versatility matters: the mark should look equally strong on stationery, web headers, and small merchandise.

Here’s what I need:
• 3 initial classic-inspired concepts that blend a distinctive symbol with the brand name
• Refinement rounds on the chosen concept until it feels perfectly balanced
• Final vector files (AI, EPS, SVG) plus high-res PNGs on transparent background
• Color and monochrome versions, along with a simple usage guide so I can apply the logo consistently across print and digital assets

Traditional serif typography, balanced proportions, and a refined color palette will set the right tone, but I’m open to your creative suggestions within the classic aesthetic. Please include a brief note on your approach and links to a couple of comparable logos you’ve produced.
