This typeface is a high-contrast serif with sharp, wedge-like finishing and flared stroke transitions that feel carved rather than purely bracketed. Stems stay thin-to-thick with pronounced modulation, while serifs and terminals taper into pointed, knife-edged forms, producing crisp joins and strong silhouette. Capitals are stately and slightly narrow in feeling, with generous counters and elegant curves; the lowercase keeps a moderate x-height and clear differentiation, with lively diagonals and a distinctly sculpted, calligraphic rhythm. Numerals and punctuation follow the same contrast and tapering logic, giving the set a cohesive, editorial polish.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and luxury branding, posters, and high-impact packaging. It can also work for short subheads and pull quotes where the contrast and sharp details can be preserved, especially in print or high-resolution digital settings.
The overall tone is upscale and formal, with a dramatic, fashion-forward sparkle created by the extreme contrast and razor-sharp terminals. It reads as confident and cultured, balancing classic serif heritage with a more contemporary, high-glam finish.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, high-contrast editorial voice with a sculptural, flared-terminal character that stands out in large sizes. It prioritizes dramatic rhythm and refined detail to signal premium, classical sophistication with a modern edge.
The strongest visual signature is the combination of hairline-thin connections and bold main strokes, plus terminals that often resolve into pointed wedges rather than rounded balls. This creates striking word shapes at display sizes, while the dense black strokes can build a powerful texture in headlines.
