A sharply modeled serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and tapered, flaring terminals that feel carved rather than bracketed. Curves are smooth and controlled, with narrow hairlines, weight concentrated in vertical stems, and crisp, triangular entry/exit strokes. The capitals read stately and slightly condensed in impression, while the lowercase keeps a steady, mid-range x-height with compact counters and lively joins. Numerals and punctuation follow the same chiseled logic, producing a consistent, glossy rhythm at both display and text sizes.
Best suited to editorial headlines, mastheads, and brand identities where high contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for luxury packaging, invitations, and poster typography, particularly in larger sizes or with comfortable line spacing to keep the fine strokes from closing up.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, projecting refinement and authority. Its sculptural contrast and pointed finishing strokes give it a couture/editorial character—confident, premium, and a touch theatrical without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif proportions with a more fashion-forward, chiseled finishing language. By emphasizing flare-like terminals and bright contrast, it aims to deliver high-impact elegance for contemporary display and refined editorial use.
The design’s flare behavior is most noticeable at stroke endings and in the way diagonals resolve into sharp tips, which adds sparkle in headlines. In dense settings the strong contrast creates an active texture; generous leading and careful size choice help preserve the delicate hairlines.
