A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weighty vertical stems, giving the letterforms a crisp, sculpted presence. Serifs are bracketed and slightly flared, with teardrop-like terminals appearing in places, contributing to a subtly calligraphic feel. Proportions run generous in width with clear stroke modulation and relatively compact lowercase height, while ascenders and capitals feel prominent. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the overall rhythm is formal but not rigid, aided by slightly varied internal spacing across characters.
Well suited to editorial typography, magazine headlines, and book titling where high contrast can add sophistication and hierarchy. It can also support upscale branding and formal printed pieces such as invitations or programs, especially at display and larger text sizes where fine hairlines remain clear.
The font conveys an elegant, editorial tone with a classical, bookish sensibility. Its strong contrast and refined detailing add a hint of drama suited to premium contexts, while the overall construction stays conventional enough to feel trustworthy and familiar.
The design appears intended to provide a classic serif voice with heightened contrast and polished details, balancing traditional forms with a more fashion-leaning, display-ready sharpness. It aims to deliver authority and refinement while remaining usable across common publishing and branding scenarios.
In text, the heavy–light transitions remain pronounced, so the design reads best when given room—ample leading and moderate line lengths help preserve clarity. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven logic and feel well matched to the capitals.
