A sculpted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and flared, wedge-like terminals that read as sharply cut rather than softly bracketed. Strokes show an ink-trap-like crispness in joins and corners, with tapering arms and strong, vertical stress that gives counters a teardrop feel in places. Capitals are broad and stately with confident serifs and compact inner spaces; lowercase is lively, with a single-storey “a,” a calligraphic “g,” and pointed entry/exit strokes that create a chiseled rhythm. Numerals are similarly high-contrast and display-oriented, with angled cuts and prominent terminals that emphasize silhouette over neutrality.
Best suited to headlines, covers, and display typography where contrast and silhouette can do the work—magazine/editorial layouts, cultural posters, fashion/beauty branding, and premium packaging. It can also serve for short subheads or pull quotes when a strong, crafted serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is editorial and theatrical: refined in its contrast but unapologetically bold in presence. Its chiseled terminals and flared endings suggest heritage and craft, while the energetic rhythm keeps it feeling contemporary and fashion-forward rather than purely traditional.
The design appears intended to merge classical serif structure with flared, carved terminals for a striking display texture. It prioritizes dramatic contrast, crisp edge behavior, and distinctive letterforms that remain legible while projecting a confident, premium voice.
Spacing and letterfit appear tuned for large sizes, where the sharp terminals and deep contrast read cleanly as graphic shapes. The diagonal cuts in letters like K, R, S, X, and Z contribute to a slightly aggressive sparkle, while rounded forms (C, O, e) keep the texture from becoming too rigid.
