A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a calm, upright posture with clear calligraphic stress and tapered joins that create a polished, chiselled look in both capitals and lowercase. Proportions lean generously wide with open counters, while the rhythm stays measured and consistent across text, giving headings a stately presence and paragraphs a clean, structured color. Numerals and punctuation match the same contrast and serif treatment, maintaining a cohesive, formal texture.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, feature decks, and pull quotes, as well as book and album covers where contrast and refinement are desirable. It can also support upscale branding and packaging, and formal printed materials like invitations, provided sizing and reproduction preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is elegant and editorial, combining classic bookish authority with a fashion-like crispness. Its strong contrast and sharp finishing details read as premium and intentional, lending a sense of ceremony and sophistication to display lines and pull quotes.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif foundation with heightened contrast and crisp detailing for a more luxurious, attention-getting voice. It balances classical proportions and serif structure with sharper finishing to perform confidently in display and editorial settings.
The font’s hairline horizontals and fine serifs create striking sparkle at larger sizes, while the sturdy verticals keep forms anchored. The italic is not shown; the visible style emphasizes a disciplined, traditional serif voice with modern sharpness at the terminals and curves.
