A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and weighty verticals, combining sharp wedge-like entry strokes with smoothly bracketed serifs. The capitals are stately and wide-set, with pointed apexes in A/V/W and strong, sculpted curves in C/G/O. Lowercase forms show a traditional text-face skeleton with a moderate x-height, lively modulation, and distinctive terminals—especially the ear and bowl in g, the angled arm of r, and a compact, slightly hooked f. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, with elegant curves and tapered joins that read well at display sizes.
This font performs best in headlines, pull quotes, and other display applications where its contrast and elegant detailing can be appreciated. It also suits editorial branding, book and magazine covers, and refined packaging or identity work that calls for a classic serif voice with some character.
The overall tone is refined and literary, balancing formality with a touch of expressive calligraphic detail. It feels suited to classic, cultured settings—confident and dignified rather than playful or casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, print-forward serif presence with heightened contrast and carefully shaped terminals for sophistication and drama. It aims to evoke classic editorial typography while adding distinctive, decorative nuances in key lowercase forms and figures.
Stroke endings often resolve into sharp, tapered points, while inner curves are generously rounded, creating a dramatic light–dark rhythm. The font maintains a consistent vertical stress across letters and figures, giving paragraphs a composed, editorial color with pronounced sparkle from the thin strokes.
