This typeface is a finely drawn serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clear, vertical stress. Stems are slender and taper into subtly flared, wedge-like terminals, while many joins and serifs show a gently bracketed transition that keeps the rhythm smooth rather than abrupt. Capitals are tall and stately with crisp apexes and long, controlled curves; lowercase forms are compact with narrow counters, a two-storey “a,” and a single-storey “g” that uses an open bowl and a tapered ear. Overall spacing reads on the tight side, reinforcing a poised, columnar texture in text.
It is well suited to headlines, decks, and pull quotes where its crisp contrast and tapered endings can read as intentional and luxurious. It also works for editorial and book-cover typography that benefits from a refined, traditional serif texture, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is polished and classical, with a distinct fashion/editorial sheen. Its sharp terminals and elegant contrast suggest seriousness and care, lending a composed, upscale voice rather than a casual or rugged one.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic serif: high refinement, clear verticality, and flared stroke endings that add sparkle and distinction in display and editorial settings.
In the text sample, the letterforms maintain strong alignment and consistent contrast, producing a lively but disciplined page color. The numerals and capitals share the same tapered stroke logic, giving headings and mixed-content settings a cohesive, formal presence.
