A refined serif with sharply tapered hairlines and strong thick–thin modulation, giving letters a sculpted, engraved feel. Serifs are bracketed and delicately pointed, with small wedge-like terminals and crisp joins that keep counters open even as contrast rises. The capitals feel stately and slightly expansive, while lowercase forms show a restrained, text-oriented rhythm with moderate apertures and smooth curves. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, pairing sturdy verticals with fine entry/exit strokes for a consistent, polished texture.
Well suited to editorial headlines, magazine display, and elegant titling where contrast and refined terminals can be appreciated. It also fits upscale branding and packaging, and formal printed materials such as invitations or programs, especially at larger sizes where the hairlines remain clear.
The overall tone is sophisticated and literary, with a fashion-editorial sheen. Its high-contrast structure and precise finishing convey confidence, tradition, and a sense of ceremony, making text feel elevated rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif foundation with heightened elegance through strong contrast and carefully finished serifs. It aims to provide a confident, premium voice that works both for display typography and for short-form reading in editorial contexts.
In the sample setting, the type creates a dramatic page color: bold main strokes establish authority while hairlines add sparkle and delicacy. The design reads as contemporary-classic—traditional proportions and serif logic, but sharpened details and clean geometry that keep it feeling current.
