A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. Serifs are slender and largely bracketed, with pointed, tapering terminals that give many letters a cut, engraved feel. The proportions are open and somewhat expansive, with generous spacing and smooth, continuous curves in rounds. Uppercase forms read stately and composed, while lowercase shows restrained calligraphic influence in details like the ear and tails, maintaining a consistent, polished rhythm across text.
Best suited for display and editorial applications such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, book jackets, and premium brand identities where elegance and contrast are assets. It can also work for short passages in larger sizes where the fine serifs and sharp terminals have room to breathe.
The overall tone is cultured and luxurious, with an editorial sharpness that suggests premium print design. Its delicate finishing and controlled contrast convey sophistication and a contemporary take on classic serif styling, leaning more toward elegance than sturdiness.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, fashion-forward serif voice rooted in traditional letterforms, emphasizing contrast, precision, and refined detailing for high-impact typography.
In the sample text, the high contrast and fine serifs remain crisp at display sizes, creating a lively texture with noticeable sparkle in curves and joins. Numerals and capitals share the same poised, high-end character, with a graceful flow that favors clean setting and careful spacing.
