A refined serif with pronounced stroke modulation and crisp hairlines. The letterforms show sculpted, slightly flared terminals and bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than slab-like, producing a clean, high-end texture on the page. Capitals are elegantly proportioned with a restrained, classical stance, while the lowercase keeps a balanced x-height and open counters; the overall rhythm is airy, with careful spacing and a clear thick–thin logic across curves and diagonals.
Well-suited for magazine typography, headlines, and pull quotes where contrast and detailing can be appreciated. It also fits brand identities and packaging that aim for a premium, fashion-forward feel, and can work for book covers or section titles that need a classical yet current voice.
The tone is poised and cultivated, with a contemporary editorial polish layered over traditional serif manners. Its sharp contrasts and tapered finishing give it a sense of luxury and ceremony, reading as confident, stylish, and slightly dramatic without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern luxury serif: high contrast, finely finished terminals, and a disciplined classical structure that reads as authoritative and elegant in display settings while remaining composed in running text.
In the text sample, the font maintains a smooth, consistent color at display-to-text sizes, with hairlines that remain crisp and a subtle calligraphic flow in joins and curves. Numerals are elegant and text-friendly, matching the serif detailing and contrast of the letters.
