A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a strong vertical axis. Stems are hefty while hairlines and serifs drop to very fine, sharp terminals, producing a crisp, engraved feel. The design favors tall capitals and compact, sturdy lowercase forms with round letters showing tight apertures and clear, teardrop-like counters. Overall rhythm is formal and controlled, with clean joins, minimal bracketing, and a distinctly display-oriented sparkle at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and short-form setting where the fine hairlines and sharp serifs can be appreciated. It works well for magazine and editorial design, fashion and beauty branding, theatrical or cultural posters, and premium packaging or identities that benefit from a polished, high-contrast serif voice.
The font projects an editorial, fashion-forward tone—confident, refined, and slightly dramatic. Its extreme contrast and sharp finishing details add a sense of luxury and ceremony, making text feel intentional and headline-driven rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended as a modern, high-contrast display serif that emphasizes elegance and impact through dramatic stroke modulation and crisp, minimally bracketed serifs. Its proportions and finishing details aim to deliver a premium, editorial look with strong presence at larger sizes.
Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with sculpted curves and delicate hairlines that read as decorative in running text. The presence of very thin strokes suggests it will look best where rendering can preserve fine details (print or high-resolution digital).
