A high-contrast serif with prominent thick-to-thin modulation and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. The letterforms feel broad and sculpted, with confident vertical stems and tapered joins that create a polished, display-forward rhythm. Serifs are fine and pointed with subtle bracketing, and many glyphs show stylized terminals—especially in the bowls and curves—adding a gently calligraphic, chiseled quality. Lowercase includes noticeable ball terminals and curled details (notably on forms like a, c, f, and g), while the numerals carry the same bold main strokes and sharp hairlines for a cohesive texture.
Best suited to large-format settings such as magazine covers, editorial headlines, brand marks, campaign graphics, and posters where the contrast and detailing can be fully appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes or section openers when given generous size and spacing.
The tone is luxurious and theatrical, leaning toward high-fashion editorial typography. Its strong contrast and sharpened details convey sophistication and confidence, with a hint of classic romantic drama rather than neutral, utilitarian text color.
The design appears intended as an attention-making serif that blends classical proportions with fashion-oriented sharpness and refined detailing. Its wide stance, high contrast, and distinctive terminals suggest a focus on premium display typography for modern editorial and branding contexts.
In the sample text, the face produces striking word shapes and a lively sparkle from the hairlines, especially at larger sizes. The spacing and wide proportions give headlines a grand, airy presence, while the intricate terminals can become visually busy when set tightly or at smaller sizes.
