A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline serifs. The design leans on tall proportions and a steady vertical axis, with smooth, bracketed serifs and finely tapered terminals that keep counters open despite the delicate strokes. Curves are clean and controlled, joins are sharp, and the overall rhythm feels measured and even across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The figures follow the same high-contrast logic, reading as graceful and formal rather than utilitarian.
Best suited to display and editorial contexts where high-contrast serifs can shine—magazine headlines, pull quotes, book covers, and sophisticated branding. It also works for short-to-medium text passages when set with comfortable spacing and adequate size to preserve the delicate details.
The typeface conveys a polished, cultured tone associated with editorial typography and luxury presentation. Its sharp contrast and slender detailing give it a poised, sophisticated presence, while the restrained shaping keeps it calm and traditional rather than playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-end reading and display voice: traditional serif structure enhanced with dramatic contrast and precise finishing for a contemporary editorial feel.
At larger sizes the hairlines and tapered terminals become a defining feature, producing a glittery, calligraphic sparkle in text. The uppercase shows stately, classical proportions, while the lowercase maintains a relatively compact, orderly texture with clear, bookish forms.
