A high-contrast serif with pronounced vertical stress and crisp, hairline finishing. The design pairs sturdy main stems with very thin cross-strokes and serifs, producing a clean, engraved-like rhythm. Serifs are fine and sharply defined with little visible bracketing, and curves are smooth with controlled flare. Proportions feel traditional: capitals are stately and moderately wide, while the lowercase shows a notably small x-height with taller ascenders/descenders and compact internal spaces at smaller sizes.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, magazine titling, book covers, and luxury branding where contrast can be showcased. It also fits formal stationery such as invitations and certificates, especially when set large enough to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and authoritative, with a fashion-and-publishing polish. Its sharp contrast and delicate detailing convey sophistication and ceremony, leaning more toward elegant display than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to evoke classic high-contrast serif tradition with a contemporary crispness, prioritizing elegance, hierarchy, and dramatic thick–thin modulation for display-forward typography.
The sample text shows the hairlines and serifs staying very delicate relative to the main strokes, creating a bright, high-end page color that benefits from generous sizing and spacing. Numerals follow the same contrast logic and read as formal, old-style-inspired figures in spirit, with pronounced thick–thin modulation.
