A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a strong vertical rhythm. Stems are weighty and straight, while joins resolve into very thin hairlines and sharp, delicate serifs. Curves are clean and controlled with a slightly calligraphic feel in letters like S and a, and overall spacing reads open and orderly. Numerals and capitals carry a stately presence, with distinctive, sculpted terminals and consistent contrast across the set.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine covers, section heads, branding wordmarks, and premium packaging where its contrast and fine detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for pull quotes or short blocks of text when set with generous size and leading.
The tone is polished and upscale, pairing classical formality with a modern, high-fashion sheen. Its sharp hairlines and confident verticality communicate prestige, sophistication, and an editorial voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a high-contrast serif for editorial and luxury contexts, emphasizing sharp refinement, vertical stress, and elegant hairlines for maximum visual drama.
At larger sizes, the hairlines and tapered serifs give strong sparkle and definition, while in dense settings the contrast creates a lively texture. The italic is not shown; the presentation reads as a roman with crisp, display-oriented detailing.
