A high-contrast serif with crisp, hairline horizontals and robust vertical stems, creating a distinctly sculpted, ink-trap-free silhouette. Serifs are sharp and finely tapered, with wedge-like terminals and pronounced joins that emphasize verticality. Curves are smooth and controlled, and many letters show a clear calligraphic stress, especially in round forms, producing a lively thick–thin rhythm. Spacing feels measured and on the tighter, display-leaning side in the sample text, while the overall proportions remain classically balanced.
Best suited to display sizes where the delicate hairlines and sharp serifs can be appreciated—such as headlines, magazine spreads, book covers, and premium branding. It can also work for short-form text like standfirsts, captions, or elegant invitations when reproduction is high quality and size is generous.
The tone is polished and authoritative with a distinctly editorial flair. Its dramatic contrast and razor-fine details convey luxury and sophistication, while the energetic stress adds a subtle fashion and magazine sensibility rather than a purely bookish feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, luxury-leaning take on a classical text-serif structure, prioritizing striking thick–thin contrast and refined detail for high-impact typography in editorial and brand contexts.
Uppercase forms read stately and monumental, while the lowercase introduces more movement through teardrop-like terminals and sharper entry/exit strokes. Numerals share the same theatrical contrast, with curvy figures that feel designed to stand out in headings and pull quotes.
