A slim, airy display serif with gently flared stroke endings and a clean, monoline-like rhythm. Letters are tall and columnar, with narrow bowls and generous vertical emphasis, while curves remain smooth and open. Several glyphs introduce decorative looped details—especially in capitals and select numerals—adding flourish without becoming fully script-like. Counters are rounded and moderately open, and the overall texture stays light and even, with minimal modulation and crisp, uncluttered outlines.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display text where its narrow proportions and ornamental details can be appreciated. It works well for boutique branding, packaging, menus, invitations, and posters that benefit from a decorative, vintage-leaning voice. For longer passages, it will be most effective at comfortable sizes and with adequate tracking to preserve clarity.
The tone feels refined yet playful, mixing a poised, vintage elegance with small moments of ornamentation. Its looping terminals and soft curves evoke a hand-drawn, boutique sensibility reminiscent of early 20th‑century decorative lettering while staying legible and restrained.
The design appears intended as a characterful display serif that balances vertical elegance with selective ornamentation. By pairing narrow, tidy structures with flared terminals and looped accents, it aims to produce distinctive, stylish wordmarks and titles without relying on heavy contrast or elaborate swashes.
Capitals carry much of the personality, with occasional internal curls and stylized terminals that create distinctive word shapes in titles. Numerals echo the same ornamental logic, with a few figures featuring curls and hook-like finishes that read as intentionally decorative rather than purely utilitarian.
