This serif typeface shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with very fine hairlines and crisp, sharply cut serifs. The overall construction is upright with a vertical, Didone-like stress and clean, controlled curves in round letters. Capitals are tall and stately with generous sidebearings, while the lowercase is comparatively small, giving the page a high-cap, formal rhythm. Details such as the two-storey “g,” the fine entry strokes, and the delicate crossbars reinforce a precise, engraved feel; figures appear lining with similarly high contrast and tapered joins.
Well suited to editorial settings such as magazine headlines, section openers, and pull quotes, as well as luxury branding and packaging where refined contrast is desirable. It also fits formal print applications like invitations and book covers, particularly when set with ample tracking and comfortable line spacing.
The font conveys a polished, high-end tone—poised and ceremonial rather than casual. Its contrast and sharp detailing evoke fashion and cultural publishing, with a sense of tradition and restraint. The small lowercase and bright, thin strokes add a slightly dramatic, display-forward sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast serif voice with a crisp, modern finish—optimized for elegance and typographic drama in display and editorial use while remaining orderly and readable in carefully set text.
The rhythm in text is airy and bright, with thin horizontals and hairline serifs that create a shimmering texture at larger sizes. Narrow joins and fine terminals are visually prominent, and the punctuation and dots read as small, neat accents consistent with the overall delicacy.
