A high-contrast serif with broad proportions and sculpted, flaring terminals. Strokes transition sharply from thick verticals to hairline connections, with wedge-like serifs and tapered joins that create a chiseled, calligraphic feel. The letterforms are upright and sturdy, with generous counters and a rhythm that alternates between bold masses and fine hairlines. Curves (C, G, S, O, Q) show pronounced thick–thin modulation, and the lowercase features compact bowls with crisp entry/exit strokes and small, rounded i-dots.
Best suited to display typography where its contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion/beauty branding, posters, and book or album covers. It can work for short pull quotes or deck copy, but the fine hairlines suggest avoiding very small sizes or low-resolution reproduction.
The overall tone is confident and theatrical, reading as premium and editorial rather than utilitarian. Its sharp contrast and flared details evoke a refined, fashion-forward sensibility with a touch of vintage gravitas.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact through bold, wide forms combined with elegant hairlines and flaring serif shapes. Its intention is to provide a distinctive, high-end voice that bridges classical serif structure with a more expressive, sculpted finish.
The design emphasizes dark, weighty verticals that hold lines of text together, while the hairlines and pointed terminals add sparkle at display sizes. Numerals are similarly stylized and bold, pairing well with the uppercase’s stately presence.
