This serif presents a high-contrast, upright construction with prominent thick–thin modulation and fine hairline serifs. Capitals are stately and fairly wide, with clean, tapered terminals and sharp apexes, while the lowercase shows compact counters and a steady baseline rhythm. The contrast is emphasized by thin crossbars and delicate connecting strokes, paired with robust vertical stems that create a crisp, polished texture in setting. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with elegant curves and narrow joins that read as refined rather than utilitarian.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial typography where its contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding and packaging applications that benefit from a classic, upscale serif voice, especially at display sizes.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, projecting a sense of luxury and tradition. Its dramatic contrast and sharp detailing give it a fashion and magazine feel, while the familiar serif forms keep it grounded and authoritative.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif refined toward display impact, using strong thick–thin contrast and delicate serifs to deliver a polished, contemporary-classic impression. Its balanced proportions and consistent detailing suggest an emphasis on elegant reading texture while retaining a pronounced, attention-getting presence.
At larger sizes the thin features and hairline serifs contribute to a striking sparkle; in denser text the strong vertical emphasis produces a bold, high-end color. Rounded letters show pronounced vertical stress, and the design maintains consistent contrast and serif treatment across caps, lowercase, and figures.
