A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. The letterforms show a strong vertical stress and a clean, upright posture, with finely cut serifs and sharp joins that give a polished, contemporary finish. Uppercase proportions feel stately and slightly narrow in rhythm, while the lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with clear counters and a smooth, print-like texture. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with slender stems and delicate curves that read best when given space.
Well suited to magazine headlines, book or journal titling, and other editorial display contexts where contrast and refinement are assets. It also fits luxury branding applications such as cosmetics, jewelry, and high-end packaging, especially when used at larger sizes with ample whitespace. For dense body text, it will generally perform best in larger point sizes and high-quality output conditions.
The overall tone is sophisticated and composed, projecting a luxury/editorial sensibility. Its sharp contrast and precise details suggest formality and confidence, with a modern fashion-magazine edge rather than a rustic or handwritten warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography: dramatic thick–thin rhythm, crisp finishing, and a poised, upscale presence for display and editorial use.
In longer settings the thin strokes and hairline serifs create a sparkling texture; the design benefits from generous tracking and careful size selection to keep fine details from visually thinning. The italic is not shown, and the forms presented emphasize clarity and polish over softness or calligraphic irregularity.
