A strongly contrasted serif with pronounced vertical stress and crisp, finely cut hairlines. The design pairs heavy main stems and broad, rounded bowls with sharp wedge-like serifs and thin connecting strokes, creating a sculpted, carved look. Curves are full and weighty, while joins and cross-strokes pull down to very slender points, giving the letters a distinctive push–pull rhythm. Uppercase forms read monumental and compact, while lowercase maintains a steady, workmanlike structure with clear counters and a slightly chunky, low-contrast feel in some shapes due to the extreme thick–thin transitions.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, cover typography, pull quotes, packaging, and brand marks where its high-contrast detailing and heavy silhouettes can be appreciated. It also works well for magazine-style editorial layouts and event or cultural posters that benefit from a formal, dramatic serif voice.
The overall tone is theatrical and authoritative, mixing elegance with a bold, attention-grabbing presence. It carries an editorial, poster-like attitude—confident and classic, with a slightly vintage, display-oriented flair.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact through extreme thick–thin contrast and refined serif detailing, aiming for a classic, high-fashion editorial impression while remaining assertive and readable at large sizes.
In running text the extreme contrast produces striking sparkle and strong word shapes, with thin strokes that can visually recede at smaller sizes. The numerals and capitals feel especially emblematic and logo-ready, while the lowercase keeps a sturdy baseline rhythm that supports short blocks of copy when set large.
