A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, hairline serifs, and a generally vertical stress. Capitals are tall and stately with sharp, bracketless finishing and crisp terminals; rounds (C, G, O, Q) show smooth, polished curves and narrow joins. Lowercase keeps a moderate x-height with long ascenders/descenders, a two-storey “a,” compact bowls, and tapered joins that emphasize a sleek, engraved rhythm. Numerals follow the same display logic, with bold main strokes, delicate hairlines, and angular entry/exit strokes that read cleanly at large sizes.
Best suited to large-scale typography such as headlines, mastheads, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks where its contrast and fine detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for luxury-oriented packaging and event materials, especially when paired with a restrained layout and ample whitespace.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, projecting an editorial, fashion-forward personality with a distinctly classical backbone. The extreme contrast and razor-like detailing add drama and sophistication, suggesting premium, curated contexts rather than casual utility.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif traditions, optimized for striking display use. It prioritizes glamour, clarity of silhouette, and a polished editorial cadence over the sturdiness typically needed for long body text at small sizes.
Spacing and rhythm feel intentionally tight and display-oriented, with narrow internal counters in several letters and prominent stroke contrast that will dominate on the page. The design’s sharp apexes and fine hairlines create a crisp silhouette that benefits from generous sizing and careful reproduction.
