A high-contrast serif with sharp, tapering terminals and finely drawn hairlines paired with broad, weighty stems. Serifs are small and crisp with subtle bracketing, giving edges a clean, cut look rather than a blunt finish. Proportions lean toward tall capitals and compact, sturdy lowercase forms; counters are generally generous, while joins and curves show a distinctly sculpted, calligraphic modulation. The overall rhythm alternates between thick verticals and whisper-thin horizontals, creating a poised, formal texture in display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, pull quotes, and other editorial display settings where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It also fits luxury branding, packaging, and book cover typography that benefits from a classic, high-fashion voice, while longer text may require comfortable sizing and spacing to preserve its delicate hairlines.
The tone is polished and sophisticated, with a strong editorial and fashion sensibility. Its dramatic contrast and razor-like details convey luxury and ceremony, while the traditional skeleton keeps it grounded in familiar book and magazine typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classic serif voice: traditional proportions and recognizable letterforms combined with heightened contrast and crisp finishing. It prioritizes elegance and visual impact, aiming for refined display typography in print-leaning contexts.
Round letters like O and Q read as elegant, near-oval forms with pronounced thick–thin transitions, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) terminate in sharp, pointed ends that heighten the formal, chiseled feel. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with curving figures showing especially fine hairlines that will be most at home at larger sizes or in high-quality reproduction.
