A refined serif with sharply tapered hairlines and sturdy vertical stems, creating a crisp, high-contrast rhythm across text. Serifs are narrow and mostly bracketed, with pointed, calligraphic terminals that add a slightly engraved feel. Capitals are stately and proportioned for display, while the lowercase shows moderate apertures and compact joins, keeping lines of text orderly. Numerals are similarly high-contrast, with slender diagonals and pronounced thick–thin transitions that read best at larger sizes.
Well-suited to magazine typography, book titles, pull quotes, and other editorial display contexts where contrast and refinement are desirable. It can also support premium brand identities and elegant packaging, especially when set with generous size and leading to protect the finer strokes.
The overall tone is polished and classic, projecting a fashion/editorial sophistication with a traditional bookish seriousness. Its sharp detailing and poised proportions suggest prestige and formality rather than casual warmth.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography: authoritative in text settings while providing a distinctly upscale, headline-ready presence. The emphasis appears to be on sharp detailing, graceful modulation, and a controlled, formal voice.
Round letters maintain a tight, controlled curvature with fine entry/exit strokes, and several forms show a subtle flourish in terminals (notably in the italics-free, upright shapes). The thin strokes are visually delicate, so spacing and size play an outsized role in maintaining clarity.
