A display-oriented serif with sharp, high-contrast modulation and sculpted, flaring stroke endings. Vertical stems read weighty and steady while hairlines taper to needle-fine points, producing a distinctly chiseled rhythm. Serifs are wedge-like and often bracket into the stems, with pointed joins and crisp terminals that give many letters a carved, faceted look. The lowercase shows compact, round counterforms with teardrop/ball-like terminals in places, and the figures follow the same contrasty, serifed construction for a cohesive set.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine typography, and brand wordmarks where its contrast and sculpted details can be appreciated. It can also work for short subheads or titling in print and high-resolution digital contexts, especially when a classic yet striking serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, balancing traditional serif authority with a slightly theatrical, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp hairlines and flared finishes create a sense of luxury and emphasis, making text feel curated and intentional rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-fashion, high-impact serif look through extreme stroke contrast, tapered hairlines, and flared, carved terminals. It emphasizes elegance and presence over neutrality, aiming to make titles and key phrases feel premium and deliberate.
At larger sizes the thin hairlines and pointed serifs become a key visual feature, creating sparkle and strong letter-to-letter contrast. Curves and diagonals (notably in letters like S, Q, and the diagonals of V/W/X) show confident, crisp transitions that reinforce a polished, editorial character.
