A high-contrast serif with prominent thick–thin modulation and a distinctly vertical stress. Hairline horizontals and delicate entry/exit strokes contrast with substantial vertical stems, producing a crisp, brilliant texture in display sizes. Serifs are sharp and fine with minimal bracketing, and terminals tend toward tapered, pointed finishes rather than blunt cuts. Overall proportions feel on the wider side, with generous set width and open counters, while maintaining a steady, upright rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other large-size typography where its hairlines can remain clean and intentional. It also fits upscale branding applications such as beauty, fashion, hospitality, and premium packaging, as well as formal stationery like invitations and event materials.
The font reads as polished and assertive, with a fashion-editorial sense of refinement and drama. Its sparkling hairlines and sculpted forms convey prestige and ceremony, leaning toward classic print elegance rather than casual warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif look, emphasizing elegance, clarity, and visual drama. Its wide stance and crisp detailing suggest a focus on impactful display typography with a refined editorial voice.
In the sample text, the strong contrast creates a lively “sparkle,” especially around thin crossbars and joins; this gives striking headlines but can look delicate at small sizes or in low-resolution contexts. Curves in letters like C, G, O, and S feel taut and controlled, and the numerals share the same high-contrast, display-oriented construction.
