A condensed display serif with pronounced contrast between thick verticals and hairline horizontals, finished with sharp, wedge-like terminals and bracketed serifs. Strokes feel subtly calligraphic: joins and terminals often swell into teardrop/leaf forms, especially in capitals, giving the outlines a sculpted, slightly ornamental edge. The capitals are tall and imposing with narrow counters and tight sidebearings, while the lowercase keeps a compact, upright rhythm with slender stems and crisp apertures. Numerals mirror the same high-contrast, carved look, with elegant curves and pointed finishing strokes.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and short passages where its contrast and carved terminals can read clearly. It works well for magazine mastheads, book or album covers, event posters, and branding in fashion, culture, or hospitality contexts where a refined yet dramatic serif voice is desirable.
The overall tone is theatrical and editorial—polished and traditional, but with enough ornamental swagger to feel poster-ready. It evokes classic print titling and vintage display typography, projecting sophistication with a hint of drama and flourish.
The font appears designed as a titling serif that heightens verticality and contrast while adding ornamental, calligraphic terminals for personality. Its goal is to deliver a classic editorial feel with extra flourish for attention-grabbing display typography.
In text settings the strong vertical emphasis and thin connecting strokes create a vivid light–dark pattern, making it especially striking at larger sizes. The design’s distinctive terminals and narrow proportions give it a bespoke, decorative presence without tipping into script-like behavior.
