A delicate serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and hairline horizontals that stay crisp even at large sizes. Stems are straight and poised, transitioning into subtly flared, wedge-like endings rather than blocky slabs, giving the letterforms a sculpted, calligraphic finish. Capitals are tall and stately with sharp apexes and fine crossbars, while lowercase shows a measured, bookish rhythm with compact joins, tapered terminals, and a single-story g that adds a traditional flavor. Numerals and punctuation follow the same high-contrast logic, with thin links and fuller curves that emphasize verticality.
Best suited to editorial headlines, mastheads, pull quotes, and other display applications where its hairlines and contrast can be appreciated. It can also support premium branding and packaging—particularly in beauty, fashion, and cultural contexts—when paired with ample whitespace and high-quality output.
The overall tone is refined and upscale, balancing classical formality with a modern, high-fashion sheen. Its sharp hairlines and controlled flare create a sense of precision and luxury, suited to sophisticated, image-led typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on high-contrast serif typography, combining sharp, elegant proportions with subtly flared terminals to add character without losing polish. The aim seems to be a luxurious, attention-grabbing voice that remains disciplined and typographically traditional.
In text settings the very fine strokes create a shimmering texture and strong vertical emphasis, while round letters retain generous interior space that helps keep word shapes open. The design reads most confidently when given room—either at display sizes or with careful spacing and sufficient contrast in reproduction.
