A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and broad, sculpted main strokes that often flare as they meet terminals. Serifs read as fine, wedge-like and calligraphically informed, with crisp joins and pointed details that give counters a cut, faceted feel. The lowercase shows a compact rhythm with a double-storey a and g, a short, finely finished t, and lively curves in s and e; capitals are stately and slightly narrow, with strong vertical emphasis and elegant diagonals in V/W/X. Numerals match the same contrast and flare, with a prominent, curving 2 and a sharply finished 4.
Best suited to headlines, mastheads, pull quotes, and other display roles where its contrast and flared finishing can be appreciated. It can support premium branding—particularly in fashion, beauty, hospitality, and luxury packaging—when set with generous spacing and ample size.
The overall tone is refined and theatrical, with a runway/editorial sheen and a sense of luxury. The extreme contrast and blade-like details create an assertive, high-end voice that feels formal, stylish, and slightly dramatic rather than casual.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of classic serif calligraphy: crisp, flared stroke endings and dramatic modulation that create a premium, editorial presence while maintaining a consistent, formal structure across text and figures.
The design rewards larger sizes where the thin strokes and sharp terminals remain clear; in dense settings the hairlines and tight interior spaces can visually intensify. Curved letters (C, G, S, O) show especially pronounced modulation, contributing to a rhythmic, elegant sparkle across lines.
