A high-contrast serif with thick, confident main strokes and very fine hairlines, creating a crisp, sculpted texture on the page. Serifs are sharp and delicately bracketed, with tapered terminals and pronounced stroke modulation that reads as calligraphic in origin. Uppercase forms feel stately and slightly wide, while the lowercase keeps a moderate x-height and clear counters, giving paragraphs a disciplined, traditional rhythm. Numerals and capitals show strong vertical emphasis and elegant curves, with smooth joins and a consistent, polished finish.
Well-suited to magazine headlines, book and report titling, and brand identities that want a classic but high-fashion serif presence. It can also work for short text passages and pull quotes where the crisp contrast and formal rhythm are given enough size and spacing to breathe.
The overall tone is refined and editorial, with a dramatic, fashion-forward elegance that still feels rooted in classical book typography. It conveys authority and formality without looking heavy, relying on contrast and sharp detailing to deliver a premium, considered voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, literary serif voice with heightened elegance through strong contrast and finely drawn details. It aims to balance traditional proportions with a more dramatic, polished finish for contemporary editorial and branding contexts.
At display sizes the hairlines and pointed serifs become a key stylistic feature, producing a bright, high-end sparkle. In denser settings the strong contrast creates a lively pattern, so careful choice of size and leading will help maintain clarity.
