This typeface is a high-contrast serif with pronounced tapering and flared stroke endings that widen into small, sharp terminals. The verticals are dominant and the thins become hairline-like, creating a crisp, engraved rhythm, especially in capitals. Serifs are minimal and often feel integrated into the stroke through flaring rather than bracketed slabs, with pointed joins and clean cutoffs. Proportions run on the condensed side with tall capitals, a relatively even, moderate x-height, and lively widths across letters; the figures echo the same contrast and sharp finishing.
Best suited to magazine typography, headlines, pull quotes, and brand marks where contrast and sharp detail can be appreciated. It also fits beauty, jewelry, and premium packaging applications, and works well for short editorial blocks at larger sizes where the delicate hairlines remain clear.
Overall, it communicates a polished, high-fashion editorial tone with a controlled sense of drama. The extreme thick–thin interplay and knife-like terminals add sophistication and a slightly theatrical elegance, suited to premium and style-forward messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, style-led serif with an emphasis on contrast, flare, and precise finishing—capturing classic editorial elegance while feeling sleek and contemporary in rhythm.
In text, the hairlines and tight letterforms create a bright, sparkling texture that rewards generous sizes and comfortable spacing. Curved letters show a calligraphic tension, and several lowercase forms (notably a, e, g) lean toward a refined, display-oriented construction rather than utilitarian text serifs.
