A high-contrast serif with hairline thins and confident, swelling thick strokes that taper into subtly flared terminals. Serifs are sharp and finely bracketed, giving the letterforms a polished, calligraphic finish rather than a blunt slab feel. Capitals are stately with generous curves (notably in C, G, O, Q) and clean, vertical stress; diagonals (V, W, X) show elegant hairline joins and pointed apexes. Lowercase forms maintain a balanced, readable x-height with crisp entry/exit strokes, a two-storey g, and a compact, slightly formal rhythm in text.
Well-suited to editorial headlines and subheads where high contrast and sharp detailing can shine, as well as luxury branding, packaging, and event materials. It can also work for pull quotes and display paragraphs in books or magazines when set with comfortable leading and not-too-small sizes.
The overall tone is poised and upscale, combining classical book-typography manners with a fashion-forward, dramatic contrast. It reads as elegant and authoritative, with enough sharpness in the hairlines and terminals to feel contemporary and premium rather than purely historic.
The design intention appears to be an elegant display-to-text serif that channels classical proportions and calligraphic contrast while emphasizing refined, flared stroke endings for a distinctive, premium voice.
In larger sizes the hairlines and flared endings become a defining feature, producing sparkle and a refined texture; in dense settings the contrast and fine details suggest giving it a bit of size or breathing room. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with curving forms that match the capitals’ formal presence.
