A sculpted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a strongly vertical, upright posture. Stems are robust while hairlines and connecting strokes taper sharply, creating crisp internal counters and a high-contrast rhythm. Serifs are bracketed and often flare out from the stems, giving many stroke endings a widened, chiseled feel rather than a flat slab. Proportions read as fairly compact with a steady x-height, and the overall spacing feels deliberate and stately with clear, stable silhouettes in both roman capitals and lowercase.
Best suited to display typography where its contrast and flared details can be appreciated: magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, premium packaging, and brand marks. It can work for short blocks of text in larger sizes, but it will be most effective when given room and size to preserve its fine hairlines and sharp transitions.
The tone is elegant and assertive, mixing classical refinement with a theatrical, editorial edge. Its sharp transitions and flared endings add a sense of luxury and ceremony, making text feel curated and high-status rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, high-impact serif voice that feels traditional in structure yet distinctly contemporary in its crisp, flared finishing. Its emphasis on contrast and sculpted terminals suggests a focus on expressive, upscale typography for editorial and brand-forward applications.
Round letters show tight apertures and strong contrast at the curves, while diagonals and joins remain clean and controlled. Numerals match the same sculptural logic, with bold main strokes and fine, tapering details that emphasize an engraved, display-oriented character.
