A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and smooth, calligraphic transitions. Vertical stems carry most of the weight while joins and diagonals taper cleanly, creating a crisp rhythm across text. Serifs are bracketed and often flare subtly at stroke endings, with sharp, tapered entry/exit strokes on forms like V, W, y, and z. Round letters (O, C, G) are generously open with thin hairlines, and the numerals follow the same sculpted contrast and slightly calligraphic stress.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other editorial typography where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It can also support luxury branding, packaging, and book-cover titling, and may work for short passages of text when set with comfortable size and spacing.
The overall tone is polished and cultured, balancing classical bookish credibility with a fashion/editorial sheen. Its high-contrast sparkle and flared finishing details give it a premium, display-forward presence without feeling ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, high-end serif voice with calligraphic movement and subtly flared endings, aiming for strong presence in display settings while retaining familiar, classical letterform structure.
Uppercase proportions feel stately and well-spaced, with confident diagonals and pointed apexes. In the lowercase, the two-storey a and g and the compact, tapered terminals contribute to an oldstyle-leaning, literary flavor, while the smooth curves and sharp hairlines keep it feeling contemporary in larger sizes.
