This typeface is a sculptural serif with sharp, flared terminals and wedge-like serifs that often read as carved cut-ins rather than traditional bracketed forms. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation with pointed joins and tapered endings, producing prominent triangular notches in counters and at stroke transitions. Curves are broad and stately, while many letters feature distinctive internal cutaways that create a patterned, faceted texture across words. Spacing and proportions lean roomy and display-oriented, with a consistent, crisp silhouette that remains stable from capitals to lowercase and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, fashion/editorial layouts, and brand marks where its distinctive cutaway serif language can carry the visual identity. It can also perform well on premium packaging and event posters, especially when set large with ample whitespace to showcase the carved details.
The overall tone is luxurious and theatrical, combining classic serif authority with a decorative, couture-like edge. The sharp cut-ins and flaring terminals introduce a slightly mysterious, jewel-cut feel that reads as modern glamour rather than purely historical revival.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-end display serif with a recognizable, ornamental signature—using flared terminals and carved notches to create a refined yet attention-grabbing texture in both uppercase and mixed-case settings.
In longer lines the repeating internal notches become a defining rhythm, so the design benefits from generous sizes where those details can be appreciated. Round letters maintain strong presence through thick outer contours, while diagonals and joints emphasize a chiseled, knife-edge personality.
