A refined serif with a vertical, high-contrast structure and delicate hairline detailing. Strokes transition sharply from thick stems to very thin joins and serifs, creating a crisp, polished rhythm in both display caps and running text. Serifs are fine and tapered with subtle bracketing, and curves are smooth and controlled, with tight apertures and slender terminals that keep the overall color bright and airy. Numerals and capitals feel formal and monumental, while the lowercase maintains a poised, bookish texture with long, graceful ascenders and descenders.
Well suited to magazine typography, headlines, and branding where elegance and contrast are an asset. It also fits book covers and premium packaging, particularly when set at medium-to-large sizes where the fine serifs and hairlines can stay clean.
The overall tone is elegant and editorial, evoking fashion, luxury packaging, and high-end print. Its sharp contrast and disciplined verticality give it a cultivated, confident presence that reads as classic and premium rather than casual or rustic.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary take on a classic, high-contrast text serif for editorial and brand-forward contexts. Its emphasis on vertical stress, sharp stroke modulation, and refined serif detailing suggests an intention to communicate sophistication and visual prestige.
The design leans on crisp hairlines and narrow joins, so letterforms can appear especially delicate at small sizes or on low-resolution outputs. In larger settings, the contrast and sculpted curves become the main visual feature, producing a sophisticated, headline-ready sparkle.
