A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and subtly flared terminals that give the letters a carved, sculptural feel. Serifs are wedge-like and often bracketed, with thin hairlines and heavier verticals creating a pronounced light–dark rhythm. The capitals are tall and stately with tight, controlled curves (notably in C, G, and S), while the lowercase shows compact, sturdy forms with a double-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and a pointed, energetic y. Numerals follow the same sharp modulation, with elegant curves and fine joins that read best when given a bit of size and air.
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine typography, book and journal titling, and brand marks that need a refined, high-end voice. It can also work for short passages in print-oriented layouts when set with comfortable size and spacing to preserve the hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and traditional with a slightly dramatic edge, suited to premium, literary, and fashion-leaning aesthetics. The sharp modulation and flared finishing strokes convey authority and sophistication rather than warmth or informality.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary take on classical serif elegance—combining strong vertical structure with flared, sharply finished terminals for a distinctive editorial signature.
In text, the pronounced contrast and fine hairlines create a lively sparkle, while the flared endings add a distinctive, slightly calligraphic crispness. The design favors clarity at display and editorial sizes, where the thin strokes and tight interior spaces have room to breathe.
