A high-contrast serif with thick, sculpted main strokes and hairline connections that sharpen to fine points. Serifs are bracketed and wedge-like, often ending in pointed beaks or rounded ball terminals, giving the contours a carved, calligraphic feel. Counters are generous and mostly round, while terminals on letters like a, f, j, y, and g show distinctive droplet/ball finishing and occasional leftward flicks. The overall rhythm is formal and steady, with crisp edges, pronounced stroke modulation, and a slightly theatrical silhouette in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and other short-to-medium display text where contrast and distinctive terminals can be appreciated. It works well for magazine and editorial layouts, book covers, fashion and beauty branding, and posters where a refined, high-impact serif is desired.
The typeface projects an editorial, upscale tone—confident and emphatic, with a refined sharpness that reads as fashionable and classic. Its dramatic contrast and decorative terminals lend a hint of vintage sophistication without becoming overly ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif structure with heightened contrast and expressive finishing details, providing a premium, attention-grabbing voice for display typography while retaining familiar, readable letterforms.
In text, the strong modulation creates striking word shapes and clear hierarchy, especially in headlines. The numerals follow the same sculpted logic, with pronounced thick–thin transitions and stylized curves that feel suited to display settings.
