A sculpted serif with pronounced contrast and flared stroke endings that widen into sharp, triangular serifs and wedge-like terminals. The letterforms show a crisp, engraved quality: heavy verticals and hairline connections create a lively rhythm, while counters stay relatively open despite the dense weight. Uppercase proportions feel stately and slightly narrow in places, with strong vertical emphasis and decisive terminals on diagonals (notably in V/W/X). The lowercase keeps a traditional skeleton with compact bowls and a firm baseline, and the numerals echo the same high-contrast, chiseled construction.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, pull quotes, magazine and fashion layouts, poster typography, and premium branding or packaging where its sharp flares and contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for short subheads or titling in editorial contexts when ample size and spacing preserve the delicate strokes.
The overall tone is formal and theatrical, combining classic bookish authority with a fashion-forward edge. Its sharp flares and hairline details give it a refined, luxe voice that reads as premium and attention-grabbing rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, high-impact serif with a carved, flared-terminal signature—balancing traditional proportions with a more dramatic, sculptural finish for contemporary editorial and brand use.
At larger sizes the hairline joins and pointed terminals become a key part of the texture, producing a shimmering, high-drama color on the page. In the sample text, the strong contrast and flared endings create distinctive word shapes and a slightly “cut” or carved impression.
