A high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and a strong vertical emphasis. Thick main stems pair with hairline joins and sharp internal notches, creating a carved, faceted look rather than purely smooth transitions. Serifs are wedge-like and often integrated into the stroke, with tapered terminals and pronounced bracketing that gives letters a chiseled, display-oriented rhythm. Proportions feel generous and roomy, with broad capitals, rounded bowls that pinch at joins, and lining numerals that echo the same dramatic contrast.
Best suited to headlines, magazine titling, posters, and brand marks where its contrast and flared finishing can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes, especially in layouts aiming for a premium, dramatic typographic voice.
The overall tone is assertive and upscale, mixing classic serif authority with a more theatrical, fashion-forward sharpness. Its strong contrast and sculptural details communicate drama and polish, suited to attention-grabbing, premium contexts rather than quiet neutrality.
Likely designed as a display serif that amplifies traditional letterforms with flared, sculptural modulation for impact. The intention appears to be creating a confident, high-fashion texture with strong contrast, crisp terminals, and a distinctive carved rhythm.
The texture in paragraph settings reads as bold and rhythmic, with noticeable sparkle from thin hairlines and deep cut-ins at joins. Curved letters (like C, S, and O) show a distinctive swelling-and-pinching modulation, and diagonals (such as in V, W, and X) keep crisp, blade-like edges that reinforce the engraved feel.
