A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flared terminals and finely tapered joins that give the strokes a chiseled, calligraphic feel. Serifs are sharp and bracketed, with noticeable widening into the endings on verticals and diagonals, creating a gently wedged silhouette. The capitals are stately with crisp apexes and sweeping curves, while the lowercase shows compact bowls, tight apertures, and energetic diagonals; the numerals follow the same contrast and tapering, with elegant curves and pointed terminals.
Well-suited to magazine and book display typography, pull quotes, section openers, and refined branding where high contrast and sculpted details can be appreciated. It can also work for formal invitations or luxury packaging when set with comfortable tracking and generous leading.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, with a fashion/editorial sophistication and a hint of classical inscriptional drama. Its contrast and sharp finishing details read as premium and formal rather than casual.
The design intention appears to blend classical serif proportions with flared, calligraphic stroke endings to create an upscale display voice that remains readable in longer headline lines. The consistent tapering and sharp serifs suggest an aim for elegance and visual drama rather than neutrality.
Spacing appears measured and even in the sample text, producing a steady rhythm in mixed-case settings. The design leans on crisp hairlines and tapered feet, so the texture becomes more luminous and refined as size increases.
