A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines, sturdy verticals, and sharp, tapered terminals that create a polished, engraved look. Serifs are fine and well-defined, often wedge-like with subtle bracketing, and curves transition quickly from thick to thin, especially in round letters and numerals. Proportions read slightly expansive with generous bowls and open counters, while spacing and rhythm stay disciplined for continuous text. The lowercase shows a traditional, readable build with a moderate x-height and clear ascenders/descenders, supporting a clean text line without losing the display-like contrast.
Well-suited to editorial design, book typography, and magazine work where a refined serif texture is desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and brand systems that want a classic, high-end impression, particularly when set with comfortable size and leading.
The overall tone is poised and editorial, suggesting tradition, credibility, and a sense of luxury. Its bright hairlines and strong stems give it a formal, cultivated voice that feels at home in classic publishing and premium branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional reading serif with an elevated, fashion-forward contrast profile—bridging comfortable text proportions with a more glamorous, display-ready finish.
In larger sizes the contrast and sharpness become a defining feature, while at smaller sizes the fine hairlines may require careful printing or screen rendering choices. Numerals share the same contrast and serif treatment, aligning well with the letterforms for typographically consistent settings.
