This serif shows pronounced stroke modulation with thin hairlines and strong vertical stems, creating a crisp, high-contrast texture. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, with sharp, clean terminals and a distinctly vertical stress in rounded forms. Proportions lean condensed, with compact letter widths and a measured, even rhythm in text. The lowercase maintains a conventional, readable skeleton, with a relatively modest x-height and clear differentiation between round and straight structures.
It performs best in display to medium text contexts where its fine hairlines can be appreciated—editorial headlines, subheads, pull quotes, book and magazine titling, and formal printed pieces. It can also serve for short passages in high-quality print, where sufficient size and contrast help preserve the delicate details.
The overall tone is polished and classic, with a distinctly editorial feel. Its high-contrast detailing and narrow stance convey sophistication and formality, suggesting a voice suited to literature, fashion, and cultured branding rather than casual or utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, bookish serif voice with heightened contrast and a condensed footprint, balancing classic readability with a more fashion-forward sharpness. The emphasis on crisp serifs and vertical stress suggests an aim toward elegant typography for curated, premium layouts.
In the samples, the font produces a bright page color at larger sizes, with strong vertical emphasis and delicate joining strokes. Numerals appear oldstyle-influenced in feel, with noticeable contrast and elegant curves that align with the text’s refined character.
