A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, vertical stress, and crisp hairline finishing strokes. Serifs are fine and sharp, often tapering into pointed wedges, and several letters show delicate curls or ball-like terminals that add sparkle at display sizes. Proportions lean tall with a relatively short x-height and compact counters, giving the lowercase a refined, slightly narrow rhythm in text. The overall drawing feels formal yet lively, with subtle stroke flares and a gently calligraphic touch visible across curves and joins.
Best suited to headlines, titles, pull quotes, and editorial settings where its contrast and fine details can be appreciated. It can also work well for invitations, boutique branding, and packaging where a refined, classic impression is desired; for longer text, it benefits from comfortable size and line spacing to preserve the hairline details.
The font conveys an elegant, bookish tone with a hint of stage-poster drama. Its hairlines and ornamental terminals create a sophisticated, slightly whimsical voice that can feel both classic and expressive depending on spacing and size.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic high-contrast serif voice with added character through tapered serifs and playful terminals, balancing traditional book typography cues with a more decorative, display-friendly presence.
Uppercase forms read as stately and monolinear in their main stems but are enlivened by thin entry/exit strokes and occasional flared ends. Numerals are similarly contrasted, with the 2 and 3 showing graceful curves and the 4 rendered with an open, angular construction that matches the sharp serif language.
