A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and crisp, tapered terminals. The heavy verticals and hairline joins create a strongly modulated rhythm, while the serifs often swell out of stems rather than sitting as flat brackets. Counters are compact and the overall color is dark and assertive, with pronounced thick–thin transitions that become especially evident in curves and diagonals. The uppercase feels stately and expansive, and the lowercase maintains a traditional, bookish structure with a two-storey a and g, plus tight apertures and firm, stable stems.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and large-format editorial settings where its contrast and flared detailing can be appreciated. It also fits branding and packaging that aims for a premium, classical tone, and works well for posters or cultural materials where a dramatic serif voice is desired.
The font reads as refined and dramatic, pairing a classic editorial sensibility with a distinctly theatrical contrast. Its sharp hairlines and flared endings give it a luxurious, fashion-forward tone, while the traditional serif skeleton keeps it grounded and formal.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion take on a traditional serif model by amplifying contrast and shaping serifs into flared, sculptural endings. The overall intent appears to be a commanding, elegant display texture that still preserves familiar letterforms for readable editorial use at larger sizes.
At text sizes the strong contrast and fine hairlines are prominent, producing an elegant but demanding texture that favors clean printing and ample size. Numerals follow the same sculpted logic, with bold main strokes and delicate finishing details that contribute to a premium, display-leaning character.
