A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp hairlines that create a crisp, ink-trap-free silhouette. Serifs are finely bracketed and tapered, with pointed terminals on several diagonals and a generally vertical, upright stress. Proportions feel generous and steady, with sturdy stems supporting delicate crossbars and joins; counters are clean and open, and the overall rhythm reads as refined and controlled rather than calligraphic. Numerals follow the same display-minded contrast, with elegant curves and thin finishing strokes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, and branding where high contrast can shine and the fine serifs remain clear. It also works well for pull quotes, titling, and premium packaging, especially in generous sizes and with comfortable spacing.
The font projects an editorial, premium tone—confident, polished, and slightly dramatic. Its strong contrast and clean detailing evoke classic print sophistication, suited to brands and layouts that want elegance with authority.
The design appears intended as a modern, display-leaning interpretation of a classic text serif: traditional structure and readability cues paired with elevated contrast and crisp finishing for a more luxurious, attention-getting presence.
At larger sizes, the hairlines and sculpted joins become a defining feature, giving headings a sharp, engraved feel. In dense settings, the heavy verticals dominate and the thin horizontals recede, emphasizing a stately, high-fashion texture.
