This typeface is a high-contrast serif with slender hairlines, weighty verticals, and finely tapered, flared stroke endings that read as delicate serifs rather than blunt slabs. Curves are smooth and controlled, with crisp apexes on diagonals and clear calligraphic modulation throughout. The lowercase shows compact, neatly finished terminals and a two-storey “g,” while capitals feel stately with clean proportions and a slightly narrowed, polished rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, pairing sturdy main strokes with thin connecting strokes and precise terminals.
It performs best in editorial contexts—magazine headlines, pull quotes, and book typography—where its contrast and tapered finishing can be appreciated. It can also suit luxury-facing branding and packaging when set at moderate to large sizes, where the fine hairlines remain clear.
The overall tone is poised and cultured, projecting a premium, bookish elegance. Its sharp detailing and bright contrast suggest formality and sophistication, with a fashion/editorial sensibility rather than a casual or rustic one.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical serif voice, combining traditional high-contrast structure with noticeably flared stroke endings for added sparkle and distinction in display and editorial settings.
At text sizes the hairlines and joins read very crisp, giving the face a bright, high-definition color on the page. The mix of strong verticals and delicate finishing strokes creates a refined cadence that favors careful typesetting and comfortable leading.
