A high-contrast serif with tapered, gently flared terminals and finely bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than purely geometric. Strokes move from hairline-thin curves and joins into confident thick verticals, producing a crisp, print-like rhythm. Capitals are stately and open, with pointed apexes and sharp inner counters, while lowercase forms stay compact with clear, rounded bowls and a slightly calligraphic modulation. Numerals follow the same contrast and terminal treatment, reading cleanly at display sizes with elegant, thin joins and smooth curves.
This font is well suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other editorial display settings where its contrast and sculpted serifs can show. It can also support upscale branding, packaging, and event materials that call for a classic, cultivated voice. In longer passages it will work best when given comfortable size and leading to preserve the delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and editorial, balancing classical bookish authority with a touch of drama from its strong thick–thin contrast. It feels formal and polished, suited to contexts where sophistication and clarity should come through simultaneously.
It appears designed to evoke traditional serif authority while adding a contemporary, fashion-forward sharpness through pronounced contrast and flared, tapered finishing. The consistent modulation and carefully shaped terminals suggest an intention to deliver elegance and impact in both titling and refined text applications.
The design’s flair comes through most in its stem endings and gently swelling terminals, which soften the contrast and keep the texture from becoming brittle. Curves are smooth and controlled, and spacing appears generous enough to maintain legibility while preserving a luxurious, high-end color in text lines.
