A crisp, high-contrast serif with sculpted, slightly flared stroke endings and sharp, wedge-like serifs. The letterforms show a calligraphic logic in the modulation, with thin hairlines and confident thick strokes that create a bright, elegant rhythm in text. Capitals are stately and relatively narrow with ample interior space, while the lowercase keeps a measured x-height and pronounced ascender/descender movement. Numerals follow the same contrast and tapering behavior, reading cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other editorial display applications where contrast and sharp finishing can be appreciated. It also fits luxury-oriented branding and packaging, and can work for book covers and cultural posters where a classic-but-contemporary serif voice is needed.
The overall tone is refined and editorial, with a dramatic, fashion-forward sheen. Its sharp details and elegant contrast suggest luxury and seriousness, while the flared finishing gives it a slightly bespoke, crafted character rather than a purely mechanical one.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary editorial serif that combines classical proportions with modern, high-contrast refinement. The flared terminals and crisp wedge serifs add a crafted, premium feel aimed at expressive display typography and polished brand communication.
In setting, the tight hairlines and pointed terminals become a key part of the personality, producing strong sparkle and a pronounced dark–light texture. The design favors clarity and poise over softness, making spacing and size choices important to preserve the delicate strokes.
