A sharply drawn serif with extreme thick–thin modulation and taut, hairline serifs that often flare subtly at the terminals. The letterforms show a vertical, stately stance with broad, rounded bowls and crisp joins, creating a polished rhythm across both caps and lowercase. Curves are smooth and continuous, while stems and diagonals snap to fine points, giving many characters a chiseled, high-fashion silhouette. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, mixing sturdy main strokes with very delicate finishing strokes for an overall glossy, display-leaning texture.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, luxury brand marks, packaging, and poster titling where the contrast and fine serifs can be appreciated. It also works for pull quotes and short editorial passages when set with comfortable tracking and leading.
The font reads as luxurious and editorial, projecting sophistication and drama through its razor-thin details and bold main strokes. Its tone feels modern-classic: poised and formal, with a runway or magazine sensibility rather than a utilitarian one.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice with refined detailing and flared finishing that heightens elegance and visual impact in prominent sizes.
At larger sizes the hairlines and pinpoint terminals become a key part of the personality, contributing sparkle and precision in headlines. In longer text settings the strong contrast creates a lively, high-end texture that favors clean printing and generous spacing.
