A high-contrast serif with thick vertical stems and razor-thin hairlines that create a sharp, polished rhythm. Serifs are fine and pointed, with a refined, slightly bracketed feel in places, and the curves show clear stress that reinforces an elegant, vertical-forward structure. Counters are relatively compact in many letters, while joins and terminals stay clean and precise, producing a strong black-and-white texture at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same dramatic stroke contrast and crisp finishing, giving the set a cohesive, editorial presence.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where its contrast and sharp serifs can be appreciated. It’s a strong choice for magazine and editorial design, fashion or beauty branding, and poster-style typographic statements, especially in settings that support fine detail.
The overall tone is sophisticated and theatrical, leaning toward luxury and high-fashion branding. Its pronounced contrast and crisp details read as confident and premium, with an old-world elegance that still feels contemporary when set large.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-end serif voice with maximum contrast and a striking page presence. It prioritizes elegance, hierarchy, and impact, aiming to produce a crisp, luxurious texture in display typography.
In longer sample text, the heavy/light modulation creates a lively sparkle, but the finest hairlines and delicate serifs suggest it will look best with generous size and careful reproduction. The face has a strong silhouette and a consistent formal posture, making it especially effective when spacing and line breaks are given room to breathe.
