A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flared wedge serifs and sharply tapered joins that give the letters a cut-paper, chiseled feel. Strokes transition quickly from thick verticals to hairline curves, and many terminals end in pointed beaks or triangular notches, creating a distinctive, decorative rhythm. The capitals read tall and stately with generous internal counters, while the lowercase mixes compact bowls with crisp, angled entry/exit strokes and teardrop-like dots on i/j. Numerals follow the same sharp, engraved logic, with bold main stems and fine, slicing terminals.
Best suited to display sizes where the crisp hairlines and wedge serifs can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, posters, and striking titling. It can work for short pull quotes or lead-ins, but it will look most controlled when given space and used in moderate amounts.
The overall tone is luxurious and dramatic, with a sense of couture polish and display-first confidence. Its sharp wedges and sweeping hairlines evoke classic editorial typography while adding an idiosyncratic, slightly theatrical edge.
The design appears aimed at an editorial display role: combining classical serif proportions with exaggerated contrast and knife-sharp terminal detailing to create a premium, attention-grabbing voice. The stylization suggests an intention to feel both refined and distinctive, prioritizing character and impact over neutral text utility.
In text settings, the strong contrast and pointed detailing create a lively sparkle, but the distinctive notches and narrow hairlines can build visual texture quickly, especially at smaller sizes or in dense paragraphs. The design feels intentionally stylized rather than purely bookish, with several glyphs showing pronounced, signature-like terminal treatments that make the font highly recognizable.
