A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and weighty, sculpted main strokes. Serifs are sharp and finely tapered, reading mostly unbracketed to lightly bracketed depending on the join, with crisp terminals and a clean, upright posture. Uppercase forms feel tall and stately with compact, controlled counters, while lowercase shows more modulation and classic bookish proportions. The overall rhythm is tight and polished, with pronounced thick–thin transitions and delicate inner details that favor larger sizes.
Well-suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and cover typography where contrast and sparkle are desirable. It can support upscale branding, invitations, and editorial titling; for extended text it will prefer comfortable sizes and good printing or high-resolution display to preserve the hairlines.
The tone is polished and upscale, projecting fashion-editorial sophistication and a sense of ceremony. Its dramatic contrast and fine detailing bring a poised, premium feel that can read luxurious and authoritative rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern classic: a conventional text-serif structure elevated with pronounced contrast, crisp serifs, and refined detailing for premium editorial and branding contexts. It emphasizes elegance and hierarchy, making it effective for display-led typography that still feels traditional.
Figures and capitals share a consistent vertical stress and a distinctly chiseled finish, giving headings a sharp, engraved presence. The thin strokes and pointed joins create a brittle elegance, so visual performance will be most confident where rendering is clean and size is generous.
