A delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and thin, tapered serifs paired to slightly fuller vertical strokes. Forms are largely rational and upright, with smooth, round bowls and controlled, calligraphic-looking terminals that often finish in small hooks or teardrops (notably on J, Q, a, c, f, and y). Spacing feels open and measured, and the overall rhythm is calm and even; capitals are stately with narrow joins and fine crossbars, while the lowercase maintains a moderate, readable structure rather than extreme narrowness. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with elegant curves and light, precise detailing.
Well suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and book or journal titling where high contrast and fine details can be appreciated. It also fits luxury brand identities and packaging that benefit from a quiet, premium voice. For smaller sizes, it will perform best in carefully printed or high-resolution digital contexts where hairlines remain crisp.
The font projects a poised, upscale tone associated with fashion and cultural publishing. Its extreme delicacy and crisp contrast communicate sophistication and restraint, giving text a polished, gallery-like quietness rather than a robust, utilitarian feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif: elegant, economical in gesture, and tuned for sophisticated display and editorial use. Its subtle terminal hooks and airy spacing suggest a goal of adding distinctive charm while keeping an overall conventional, text-serif discipline.
At display sizes the hairline strokes and pointed terminals create a sparkling, engraved effect, and the distinctive hooked terminals add personality without tipping into ornament. In longer passages it reads as airy and refined, though the thinnest strokes visually recede, emphasizing vertical structure and silhouette more than texture.
