A high-contrast serif with slender hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation, paired with gently flared stroke endings that read as sharp, wedge-like serifs. The shapes are taut and clean, with smooth, controlled curves and a slightly calligraphic rhythm in round letters and diagonals. Proportions feel balanced rather than condensed, with open counters and a measured, formal spacing that keeps the texture airy at display sizes. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and show classic proportions with clear differentiation between forms.
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other large-scale typography where contrast and sharp detail can shine. It can support premium branding systems—especially in fashion, beauty, hospitality, and cultural institutions—and works effectively on packaging and posters where a refined, dramatic serif is desired.
The overall tone is polished and aspirational, combining luxury editorial refinement with a subtle contemporary edge. Its dramatic contrast and crisp finishing give it a poised, high-end voice suited to sophisticated, image-led communication.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif voice built on classical proportions but finished with crisp flared terminals and pronounced contrast for impact. Its intent is likely to provide elegant display typography that feels both timeless and current.
The design’s flared endings are especially noticeable on stems and diagonals, producing a sculpted, chiseled finish rather than bracketed, traditional serifs. In text samples, the strong contrast creates an elegant sparkle, favoring larger sizes and generous leading for best readability.
