A refined serif with strong vertical stress and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems are substantial while joins and serifs taper to delicate hairlines, giving the face a crisp, chiseled look. Serifs are sharp and largely unbracketed, with flat, straight terminals that create a clean baseline rhythm. Proportions read slightly broad with generous counters and clear, open apertures, and the overall texture stays even while letter widths vary naturally across the alphabet.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, book covers, and premium branding where its high-contrast strokes can remain clean and legible. It also works well for pull quotes and section openers in print or high-resolution digital layouts, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-leaning elegance. Its high-contrast detailing and sharp finishing convey sophistication, ceremony, and a premium, print-centric character.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, luxury-oriented serif voice with strong contrast and sharp, modern finishing. It prioritizes elegant letterpress-like sparkle and clear typographic hierarchy for display and editorial settings.
Uppercase forms feel stately and structured, with smooth curves on round letters and confident, straight-sided construction on H/E/N-like shapes. The numerals match the same contrast and serif treatment, reading traditional and display-friendly; the lining figures and punctuation maintain the same crisp, high-definition impression.
