A high-contrast serif with sharp hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation, giving strokes a crisp, engraved feel. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, with tapered terminals and clean, upright construction. Proportions are moderately narrow with a steady rhythm in text, while capitals feel stately and evenly weighted. Lowercase forms are compact with a restrained x-height, and the overall spacing reads controlled and slightly tight, enhancing a polished, print-oriented texture.
Well suited to magazine typography, book jackets, and headline systems where a refined, high-contrast serif can carry a premium tone. It can also support upscale branding and packaging, especially when paired with generous margins and comfortable leading to preserve its hairline details.
The tone is elegant and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial, luxury flavor. Its strong contrast and delicate detailing suggest sophistication and tradition, reading as poised and formal rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, print-classic reading experience with elevated contrast and tasteful ornamental touches. It aims to balance conventional text-serif structure with a fashionable, display-ready sharpness for editorial and brand-forward applications.
Distinctive details include a looping Q tail and calligraphic, ball-like terminals on letters such as j and y, which add a subtle decorative accent without breaking the overall conventional structure. Numerals follow the same contrast and refinement, with curving forms that feel suited to display settings as well as carefully set text.
