A sculpted serif with sharp, wedge-like terminals and pronounced flaring where strokes meet the serifs, producing a carved, chiseled feel. The design is extremely contrasty, pairing very thin hairlines with dense verticals and broad curves, and it uses distinctly bracketed joins that add a slightly calligraphic tension. Proportions skew stately in the capitals, while the lowercase shows a compact, editorial rhythm with tight apertures and strong vertical emphasis. Numerals follow the same dramatic contrast and crisp finishing, reading best when given room to breathe.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and display typography where its contrast and crisp terminals can be appreciated. It works well for magazine layouts, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and dramatic titling where a sophisticated, high-impact voice is needed.
The overall tone is refined and theatrical, balancing classic bookish authority with fashion-led glamour. Its razor-thin details and bold massing create a sense of luxury and drama, making it feel confident and headline-forward rather than purely utilitarian.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum elegance and contrast through flared, wedge-like endings and sharp finishing, creating a distinctive display serif that feels both classic and contemporary. The intent reads as editorial and brand-oriented: a typeface built to command attention while maintaining a polished, cultivated tone.
Curves often end in pointed, blade-like tips (notably on letters with bowls and tails), and several forms show deliberate asymmetry in stress that enhances the lively, engraved impression. The texture in paragraphs is dark and punchy, with hairlines that can visually sparkle at larger sizes and may require careful handling on busy backgrounds.
