A high-contrast serif with thick vertical stems and very fine hairline serifs and joins, creating a crisp, sharply carved color on the page. Serifs are bracketed rather than slab-like, with pointed terminals and tapered strokes that give many letters a slightly calligraphic, cut-by-hand feel. Uppercase forms are stately and broad with strong vertical emphasis, while the lowercase shows rounded bowls and a compact, controlled rhythm that stays stable across words. Numerals and caps carry pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp finishing details, producing an overall polished, display-leaning texture.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other display settings where the fine hairlines and high contrast can be appreciated. It also fits editorial and publishing contexts such as magazine typography or book covers, and can support premium branding when used with generous spacing and sufficient size.
The tone is elegant and assertive, leaning toward luxury and editorial refinement with a hint of theatrical drama. The sharp hairlines and sculpted terminals convey formality and tradition, while the strong weight and contrast add a contemporary, attention-grabbing presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened contrast and sharp finishing, balancing classical structure with a more dramatic, fashion-forward surface. Its proportions and detailing suggest a focus on impact and refinement rather than low-size, long-form body text utility.
In longer samples the dense strokes create a dark, authoritative text color, while the hairlines and delicate serifs remain a defining detail at larger sizes. The design reads cleanly and upright, with clear, classic proportions and a consistent contrast pattern across letters and figures.
