A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines, pronounced thick–thin modulation, and finely tapered terminals. Serifs are sharp and delicate with a lightly bracketed, engraved feel, while curves are smooth and tightly controlled. The face reads slightly wide in uppercase with spacious bowls and measured sidebearings; lowercase maintains steady rhythm with a traditional, readable x-height and elegant ascenders. Numerals and capitals show clear vertical stress and a polished, display-minded finish.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and large-scale typography where its contrast and fine serifs can stay crisp. It also fits luxury branding, fashion/editorial layouts, and poster work that benefits from a refined, high-drama serif voice.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, with a distinctly editorial sensibility. Its sharp contrast and refined detailing give it a dramatic, couture-like presence that feels premium and formal rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern editorial serif with classic roots: elegant proportions, precise contrast, and sharp finishing details aimed at premium display typography while remaining coherent and readable in short passages.
In text settings the strong contrast and thin joining strokes create a shimmering texture, especially at larger sizes. Round letters (C, O, Q) are notably open and airy, while pointed joins and narrow hairlines add a slightly calligraphic, engraved character.
