A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The design favors tall, stately capitals and a measured rhythm in text, with delicate hairlines and strong main stems creating a polished, high-contrast texture. Curves show a clear vertical stress, while terminals are often sharpened or finished with small balls in places (notably on forms like J, a, g, y, and some numerals). The lowercase maintains a conventional text structure with a moderate x-height, open counters, and carefully tapered joins that keep the overall color clean despite the contrast.
This font is well suited to editorial typography, magazine headlines, and brand identities that benefit from a luxe, classical voice. It can also serve well on book covers, event materials, and invitations, particularly in medium-to-large sizes where the contrast and fine detailing are most legible.
The overall tone is poised and cultivated, suggesting traditional book typography filtered through a more glamorous, editorial sensibility. It reads as confident and formal, with a hint of drama from the fine hairlines and crisp finishing.
The design appears intended to provide a classic serif foundation with elevated contrast and carefully finished details, creating a premium look that bridges traditional text typography and modern editorial display.
The numerals share the same high-contrast logic and include distinctive curved details (such as a curled 2 and a ball-ended 3), helping them feel decorative without breaking consistency. Spacing in the sample text appears balanced for display and larger text settings, where the hairlines can remain visible and the contrast becomes a key aesthetic feature.
