A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines, weighty verticals, and pronounced bracketed serifs that flare subtly as strokes meet the terminals. The drawing feels sculpted and slightly calligraphic: curves are smooth and taut, joins are clean, and terminals often finish in fine, pointed wedges. Proportions read on the wider side with generous counters and an overall open texture, while the lowercase keeps a steady, readable rhythm and a clear, traditional skeleton.
It performs best in display settings where its contrast and fine detailing can be appreciated—magazine headlines, pull quotes, posters, and premium branding. It can also suit upscale packaging and invitation systems when set with comfortable size and spacing to protect the hairlines.
The typeface projects a polished, editorial tone with a dramatic, boutique sensibility. Its sharp contrast and elegant detailing suggest sophistication and a premium feel, balancing classic bookish cues with a more fashion-forward edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with elevated contrast and refined, flared finishing, optimized for attention-grabbing typography. It emphasizes elegance and clarity through open counters and a disciplined rhythm, while keeping enough sharpness and sparkle for contemporary editorial use.
Capitals carry strong vertical emphasis and striking contrast, while the lowercase shows distinctive wedge-like entry/exit strokes that add sparkle in text. Numerals appear similarly stylized, with refined hairlines and a slightly display-oriented presence that suits larger sizes.
