A sculpted display serif with sharp wedge-like terminals and bracketed serifs, pairing broad, rounded bowls with crisp, knife-edged joins. The design leans on extreme thick–thin modulation, producing glossy-looking strokes and tight internal counters that create a strong black-and-white rhythm. Curves are generous and slightly teardrop-shaped, while diagonals and apexes finish in pointed, flared tips; the overall color is dense but patterned by bright highlights. Numerals and capitals read sturdy and monumental, with a consistent, formal structure that stays strictly upright.
Best suited to headlines, mastheads, pull quotes, and title treatments where the high-contrast detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for premium branding and packaging that needs a classic-but-expressive serif voice, especially in short blocks of text.
The font projects an editorial, high-fashion tone—confident, theatrical, and polished. Its sharp highlights and carved terminals add a sense of luxury and drama, while the traditional serif construction keeps it anchored in classic print culture.
The design appears intended as a modern, attention-grabbing take on conventional serif forms: familiar proportions and upright construction enriched with dramatic contrast and sculptural, flared finishing. Its goal is to deliver strong presence and an upscale editorial character in display typography.
At larger sizes the distinctive wedge terminals and high-contrast stress become the main identity, creating a lively sparkle across words. In longer passages the dense weight and narrow counters can feel intense, so spacing and size will strongly influence legibility and texture.
