A sculpted serif with strong thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketed and often flare into wedge-like shapes, giving stems a carved, ink-trap-like silhouette in places while keeping counters open and clean. Curves are generously rounded with a slightly calligraphic swing, and the rhythm alternates between sturdy verticals and sharp hairlines for a lively, high-contrast texture. Numerals follow the same sculpted logic, mixing assertive vertical strokes with delicate transitions and pronounced terminals.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and short passages where the high contrast and sculpted serifs can read as a design feature. It works well for magazine/editorial design, fashion or luxury branding, and premium packaging where a refined yet distinctive serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and theatrical, with a distinctly editorial polish. Its sharp contrasts and flared details suggest luxury and sophistication, while the slightly quirky carving in some forms adds a hint of personality and drama.
Likely designed to reinterpret a classic high-contrast serif with more decorative, carved terminals and a slightly calligraphic construction, aiming for a memorable display texture without abandoning traditional serif proportions.
Several capitals feel deliberately stylized through asymmetric stress and pointed joins, producing a refined-but-expressive display presence. At larger sizes the hairlines and tapered ends become key identifying features, creating a crisp sparkle along word shapes.
