A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clear vertical axis. Strokes transition into very fine hairlines and sharp, delicate serifs, giving the forms a crisp, drawn-in-ink feel. Proportions are balanced and slightly narrow in places, with round letters showing smooth, controlled curves and straight-sided capitals maintaining a stately, formal rhythm. Lowercase details such as the two-storey “a,” compact “e,” and looping “g” reinforce a traditional, bookish construction while keeping counters open and clean.
Well-suited to headlines, titles, pull quotes, and other display settings where its contrast and detailing can be appreciated. It also works for refined editorial typography and formal materials such as invitations and programs, especially when set with generous spacing and comfortable leading.
The overall tone is polished and elevated, leaning toward classic sophistication rather than warmth. Its sharp contrast and fine finishing convey a sense of luxury and seriousness, with a subtly dramatic presence that reads as editorial and fashion-oriented.
The design appears intended to evoke a modern interpretation of classical serif typography: high refinement, strong typographic color, and a premium, editorial voice. It prioritizes elegance and crisp detail, aiming for impact and sophistication in prominent settings.
In text, the hairlines and serifs create a bright sparkle and strong line-to-line rhythm, especially at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same refined logic, with curved figures showing elegant modulation and a distinctive, slightly calligraphic sweep in some terminals.
