A high-contrast serif with sharp, hairline serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems are robust and largely vertical, while joins and curves taper quickly into fine terminals, giving letters a sculpted, calligraphic tension without becoming cursive. Capitals are stately and evenly proportioned with crisp bracketed serifs; the lowercase shows compact, controlled forms with clear counters and a two-storey “g.” Numerals follow the same refined contrast and feature delicate finishing strokes that read cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, titling, pull quotes, and other display applications where its contrast and fine serifs can remain crisp. It can also work for short-form text in high-quality print or high-resolution screens, especially in layouts aiming for a classic editorial voice.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, projecting sophistication and authority. Its sharp contrast and crisp detailing feel at home in premium, editorial contexts, with a quiet luxury rather than a rustic or playful mood.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary take on a traditional high-contrast book and magazine serif: crisp, poised capitals, a readable lowercase, and a refined texture intended to convey prestige in layout-driven typography.
In the text sample, the strong vertical rhythm and tight hairlines create a bright, sparkling texture that becomes more pronounced as size increases. The “Q” has a distinctive, sweeping tail, and several letters show subtly varied widths that add a lively cadence while keeping alignment and spacing disciplined.
