This serif displays a striking thick–thin rhythm with hairline cross-strokes and tapered, flaring stroke endings that read as sharp, delicate serifs rather than heavy slabs. Uppercase forms are stately and open, with crisp horizontals (notably in E/F/T) and smooth, calligraphic transitions where strokes meet, creating subtle bracketing in curved letters. The lowercase maintains a moderate x-height and a polished, bookish skeleton; bowls are generous, counters are clean, and joins stay narrow, emphasizing contrast. Numerals echo the same refinement, with slender diagonals and fine terminals that keep the set light on its feet.
Best suited to display typography—magazine headlines, pull quotes, titles, and upscale branding where its contrast and fine terminals can read clearly. It also works well for luxury packaging and identity systems that want a classic serif voice with a sharper, more modern edge.
The overall tone is poised and upscale, evoking fashion magazines and premium packaging. Its combination of razor-fine details and confident vertical stress feels formal and cultivated, with a contemporary editorial sheen rather than rustic warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-contrast serif for modern editorial and brand environments, pairing classical proportions with flared, needle-like finishing for a crisp, premium impression.
At larger sizes the sharp hairlines and flared terminals become a defining feature, giving text a crisp sparkle and strong typographic color. In dense settings, the contrast and fine serifs can create a lively texture that rewards generous spacing and high-quality rendering.
