A high-contrast serif with pronounced flaring at stroke endings and crisp wedge-like terminals that read as cut, sculpted shapes rather than bracketed serifs. The design pairs heavy verticals with hairline joins and notches, creating a lively, chiseled rhythm across words. Counters are relatively open for the weight, while joins and apexes (notably in V/W/Y and diagonals) resolve into sharp, triangular points. The lowercase shows a traditional, two-storey a with a strong ear and compact, dark internal shapes; overall spacing and letterfit feel display-oriented, emphasizing silhouette and contrast over quiet text texture.
Best suited to headlines, covers, and short display settings where the contrast and flared endings can be appreciated. It works well for fashion and culture editorial, premium branding, packaging, and event/promotional typography where a strong, sculptural serif voice is desired.
The font conveys a theatrical, fashion-forward tone—confident, glamorous, and a bit baroque. Its sharp flares and knife-edge details give it a crafted, couture feel that suggests prestige and drama rather than everyday neutrality.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact through exaggerated contrast and flared terminals, combining classical serif proportions with a more stylized, carved finish. It seems intended to create memorable, high-status typography for display applications rather than extended reading.
The figures and capitals present striking light-dark patterning, with thin internal cuts and hairline transitions that can sparkle at large sizes but may demand generous size and careful reproduction in small settings. The overall impression is intentionally assertive, with distinctive terminals that create recognizable word shapes.
