A high-contrast serif with sharp, tapered hairlines and confident, darker main stems. Serifs are small and elegant with subtle bracketing and pointed terminals, giving the outlines a crisp, engraved feel. Uppercase proportions are stately and slightly narrow in rhythm, while the lowercase shows a traditional text structure with two-story a and g, compact apertures, and a relatively moderate x-height. Curves are smoothly modeled with strong thick–thin modulation, and overall spacing reads controlled and even in paragraph settings.
Well-suited to magazine layouts, book typography, and other editorial contexts where a refined serif texture is desirable. It performs especially well for headlines, pull quotes, and title pages, and can also support upscale brand identities and packaging when set with ample size and air.
The font projects a polished, classic tone associated with editorial typography and luxury branding. Its pronounced contrast and fine details add a sense of sophistication and ceremony, reading more formal than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, highly finished serif voice with a premium, print-oriented character. It balances traditional book-letter proportions with a more glamorous contrast profile to create impact in display and editorial roles.
In the sample text, the sparkle of the hairlines and the sharp joins become more prominent at larger sizes, while at smaller sizes the darker stems maintain a steady texture. Numerals appear lining with similarly high contrast, supporting a consistent, traditional typographic color across mixed content.
