A sculpted serif with strong thick–thin modulation and tapered, flared stroke endings that give stems a chiseled, calligraphic feel. Serifs are sharp and triangular, with narrow hairlines and broad verticals creating a crisp, high-contrast rhythm. Counters are relatively compact and the joins show deliberate narrowing, producing a lively, slightly mannered texture in both caps and lowercase. Numerals follow the same sculptural logic, with pronounced contrast and pointed terminals that read cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and large editorial typography where its contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It can work well for fashion and cultural branding, posters, and premium packaging, especially when paired with a calmer companion for body text.
The overall tone is sophisticated and theatrical, balancing classical bookish cues with a fashion-forward edge. Its sharp terminals and dramatic contrast suggest luxury, ceremony, and editorial polish rather than neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, refined serif voice that feels both classical and stylized. The flared terminals and pronounced contrast aim to create an elegant, distinctive silhouette optimized for display typography.
In text settings the contrast produces a strong vertical cadence, while the tapered connections and pointed details add sparkle and movement. The glyphs feel intentionally carved rather than purely geometric, which helps headings stand out but can create a busy color if set too small or too tight.
