A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The forms show a strong vertical axis and sculpted, calligraphic curvature, with teardrop/ball terminals appearing in several lowercase shapes. Capitals are broad and stately with sharp apexes and clean serifs, while the lowercase has a steady, traditional rhythm and compact joins that keep the texture dense in text. Numerals follow the same dramatic contrast, with curvy figures and clear weight concentration in the main stems.
Well suited to headlines, magazine typography, and display settings where contrast and elegance are assets. It can work for branding and packaging that aims for a traditional, premium voice, and for short text blocks when sizes and spacing support the delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, with an editorial, fashion-forward sharpness. Its dramatic contrast and elegant terminals give it a refined, premium feel that reads as classic rather than playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading model with heightened drama—emphasizing contrast, vertical stress, and refined terminals to create an elevated editorial presence.
In the sample text, the bold stroke peaks and thin hairlines create a lively sparkle that favors larger sizes and generous spacing. The letterforms maintain a consistent vertical stance, with expressive curves (notably in S, G, and the two-storey a) that add personality without becoming decorative.
