A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. Stems are slender with sharp hairlines, while curves show smooth transitions and a clear vertical stress in rounds like O and C. Proportions feel traditional, with relatively narrow capitals and slightly more generous, readable lowercase forms; counters remain open and the overall rhythm is even. Numerals and punctuation follow the same delicate, high-contrast construction, keeping a consistent, polished texture in text.
Well suited to editorial settings such as magazines, book typography, and refined long-form layouts where an elegant serif texture is desirable. It also performs nicely in display roles—headlines, pull quotes, and invitations—where the high-contrast detailing can be appreciated.
The font conveys a poised, editorial elegance—formal without feeling ornate. Its high-contrast strokes and tidy serifs suggest classic book typography and contemporary luxury branding, creating a tone that feels cultured, calm, and premium.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast reading serif with an elevated, fashion-forward finish. Its controlled proportions and consistent modulation aim for a polished typographic voice that bridges traditional literary cues with modern editorial styling.
Diagonal letters such as V, W, and X emphasize sharp joins and fine terminals, reinforcing a crisp, engraved-like finish. The sample text shows a smooth, consistent color at larger sizes, with delicate hairlines that reward good printing or high-resolution display contexts.
