This serif typeface combines tall, narrow proportions with sharply modulated strokes and delicate hairline serifs. Vertical stems read dark and steady while curves and linking strokes thin to fine lines, creating a distinctly calligraphic stress and a lively, slightly irregular rhythm across letters. Serifs are small and precise—often subtly bracketed or lightly flared—giving the forms a crisp, carved feel rather than a heavy, slab presence. The lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with relatively long ascenders and descenders, and the numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with slender joins and prominent thick-thin transitions.
This font is well suited to display roles such as headlines, deck titles, posters, and brand marks where its high-contrast detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for editorial pull quotes or short passages when set with comfortable tracking and size, especially in contexts aiming for a refined, high-style look.
The overall tone is elegant and dramatic, with a fashion/editorial sensibility that feels both classic and a touch eccentric. Its sharp contrast and narrow stance add a heightened, theatrical polish, suggesting sophistication and formality while still keeping a distinctive personality.
The design appears intended to deliver a stylized, high-contrast serif voice that nods to classical forms while pushing toward a more decorative, fashion-forward expression. Its narrow build and pronounced thick–thin transitions prioritize elegance and impact over neutrality.
Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, which adds character and a slightly bespoke texture in continuous text. The design’s fine hairlines and pointed details make it feel crisp at display sizes, with a refined silhouette that emphasizes verticality.
