A condensed, high‑contrast serif with crisp hairlines and sharply tapered, slightly flared terminals. The strokes feel calligraphic rather than mechanical, with lively modulation and a mix of long verticals and delicate entry/exit strokes. Serifs are fine and pointed, often reading as hairline wedges, and the overall rhythm is tight and vertical with generous ascenders and descenders relative to the x-height.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, pull quotes, book or magazine covers, posters, and formal invitations where its narrow proportions and fine detailing can be appreciated. It can add a cultivated, period-tinged voice to branding or titling when used with ample size and comfortable spacing.
The font projects a refined, literary tone with a touch of theatrical flair. Its narrow stance and sharp detailing create a dramatic, slightly whimsical elegance that feels more expressive than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, space-saving display serif with pronounced contrast and expressive, tapered finishing strokes. It prioritizes character and sophistication over neutrality, aiming for a memorable, classic-meets-decorative presence in titling.
In the sample text, the thin joining strokes and compact letterfit create a bright texture at larger sizes, while the most delicate hairlines suggest it will feel more ornamental as size decreases. Numerals and capitals maintain the same taut, vertical emphasis, giving headlines a composed but distinctive sparkle.
