A high-contrast serif with slender hairlines and pronounced vertical stress, combining crisp, finely tapered serifs with broad, dark main strokes. The letterforms feel tall and poised, with smooth curves and tight, controlled joins that keep counters clean even as contrast increases. Serifs are delicate and sharply finished, lending a chiseled, glossy look, while the overall rhythm alternates between thick verticals and whisper-thin horizontals for a distinctly formal texture. Numerals and capitals read especially stately, with a polished, display-forward presence.
Best suited for headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other editorial display uses where its contrast and sharp serifs can be appreciated. It also fits fashion, beauty, and premium product branding, as well as event materials and refined packaging where a formal, cultivated voice is desired. For longer passages, it will perform most comfortably when given generous size and spacing.
The tone is elegant and assertive, projecting a premium, editorial mood associated with fashion and luxury branding. Its dramatic contrast and sharp detailing create a sense of sophistication and ceremony rather than casual warmth. The font feels designed to be seen—confident, stylish, and slightly theatrical in larger settings.
The design intent appears to be a refined, conventional serif with a distinctly high-fashion, high-contrast character—built to deliver elegance and impact in display typography while retaining familiar, classical letterform structure.
In dense text, the strong thick–thin modulation creates a lively sparkle, but the finest hairlines and terminals may visually recede at smaller sizes or in low-resolution contexts. The glyph set shown maintains consistent contrast behavior and a cohesive serif treatment, giving the face a unified, high-end appearance across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
