This serif displays pronounced thick–thin modulation with razor-fine hairlines and robust verticals, creating a crisp, high-fashion silhouette. Serifs are tapered and flare out from stems, with wedge-like terminals and sharp inner joins that evoke pen-driven construction. Counters are relatively open and the overall rhythm feels airy, while diagonals and curves resolve into narrow, precise endpoints. The lowercase shows a compact, editorial texture with distinctive, high-contrast forms and slightly varied widths across letters; figures follow the same sharp, flared logic with strong vertical emphasis.
Best suited to display roles such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding where the high-contrast detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial passages or captions when set with comfortable size and spacing, especially in print-forward or luxury contexts.
The tone is polished and dramatic, projecting sophistication and a premium, editorial attitude. Its sharp contrast and flared terminals add a touch of theatricality that reads as modern luxury rather than purely classical book typography.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif structure with flared, pen-influenced stroke endings to achieve a contemporary editorial voice. Emphasis is placed on contrast, sharpness, and elegant terminals to deliver impact in titles and brand-led typography.
At larger sizes the delicate hairlines and pointed terminals become a key feature, adding sparkle and elegance. In dense text blocks the contrast and narrow joins can create a lively, high-frequency texture, while headlines benefit from the crisp verticals and sculpted curves.
