A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, with sharp, tapered finishing that gives strokes a chiseled, precise edge. Curves show a clear calligraphic stress, while verticals read dark and steady, producing a lively, shimmering texture at larger sizes. Proportions feel classical with moderate x-height, narrow joins, and slightly varied letter widths that create an articulate rhythm in both capitals and lowercase.
Well-suited to headlines, pull quotes, and large-size editorial typography where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It also fits book covers, cultural posters, and premium branding systems that want a classic serif presence with a sharp, contemporary finish.
The tone is polished and upscale, balancing classical bookish authority with fashion-like sharpness. Its dramatic contrast and fine detailing suggest sophistication and ceremony rather than casual utility, lending text a poised, editorial voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif structure with heightened contrast and finely cut terminals, creating a luxurious, attention-getting texture for editorial and display settings while retaining recognizable, conventional letterforms.
The sample text shows strong word-shape definition and a distinctly sparkling page color, especially where hairlines and serifs repeat. Numerals and capitals appear designed for display-led clarity, with graceful curves and decisive stroke endings that emphasize a premium, print-oriented character.
