This serif features strong thick–thin modulation with hairline horizontals and sharply tapering joins, giving the letters a crisp, polished silhouette. Serifs are fine and largely bracketed, with pointed terminals and wedge-like finishing on diagonals that add a subtly calligraphic snap. Capitals are tall and stately with generous spacing, while the lowercase shows compact, smooth bowls and a relatively modest x-height, keeping the rhythm airy and controlled. Numerals and punctuation follow the same high-contrast logic, with delicate interior counters and thin entry/exit strokes that read best when given room.
Well suited to magazine typography, display headlines, and brand identities where elegance and contrast are assets. It can work for short text passages in high-quality editorial layouts with comfortable leading, but it is especially effective for titles, pull quotes, and premium packaging where the sharp hairlines can be preserved.
The overall tone is luxurious and editorial, combining classical book-serifs with a modern, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp contrast and slender details create a sense of sophistication and drama, suited to high-end, curated contexts rather than utilitarian settings.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary luxury serif with classic proportions and heightened contrast, aimed at sophisticated editorial and branding applications. Its precise hairlines, sculpted serifs, and poised spacing emphasize refinement and visual impact over rugged everyday durability.
The design relies on fine hairlines and narrow connecting strokes, so it benefits from careful sizing and printing conditions where delicate details won’t break up. The italic is not shown; all samples appear upright.
