This serif typeface features pronounced thick–thin modulation with hairline horizontals and finely tapered joins, producing a crisp, sparkling texture. Serifs are delicate and bracketed, with sharp terminals and a slightly calligraphic feel in the way strokes swell and taper. Capitals are stately and narrow-to-moderate in stance, with a high-waisted look in letters like A and M; curves (C, G, O, Q) are smooth and taut, and the Q uses a slender, sweeping tail. The lowercase shows a compact, bookish rhythm with two-storey a and g, a narrow f with a high crossbar, and a long, elegant y; numerals are similarly contrasty, with a distinctive, curled 2 and a balanced, open 4.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other prominent typography where the high-contrast detailing can be appreciated. It can support refined branding and packaging, as well as book or cultural-poster titling, and works well for formal invitations or event collateral when set at generous sizes.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with a dramatic contrast that reads as luxurious and editorial. Its refined details and airy hairlines evoke classic print sophistication, leaning toward fashion and cultural publishing rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, sophisticated serif voice with heightened contrast and carefully drawn hairlines, prioritizing elegance and character in display and editorial settings.
Spacing appears measured and composed for display sizes, where the fine serifs and hairlines can remain clean and intentional. The sample text shows a consistent vertical emphasis and a smooth baseline rhythm, with distinctive character shapes that give headlines a recognizable voice.
