A decorative serif with extreme thick–thin modulation and a crisp, vertical stance. Stems are narrow and blade-like, while hairline connections and serifs taper to fine points, creating a delicate, engraved rhythm. Many letters feature flared strokes and curled terminals, with occasional swash-like hooks on descenders and finials. Uppercase forms feel tall and sculptural, with compact bowls and sharp joins, while lowercase maintains a restrained x-height and relies on long ascenders/descenders to carry the style. Numerals echo the same contrast and include curving terminals that read as ornamental rather than purely utilitarian.
Best suited to display typography where its contrast and ornamental terminals can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion or beauty branding, boutique packaging, book covers, event materials, and short editorial pull quotes. It can also work for logo wordmarks and titling where a refined yet whimsical voice is desired.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, mixing classical sophistication with a playful, storybook flourish. Its hairline details and curled endings give it a slightly magical, boutique feel—more expressive than sober—while still reading as a serif rooted in traditional display lettering.
The font appears designed to provide a high-fashion, high-drama serif option with added decorative curls for personality. Its intention is to stand out in short texts through elegant contrast, sharp hairlines, and distinctive terminal detailing rather than to serve as a neutral reading face.
The design leans on thin entry/exit strokes and delicate serifs that will visually soften at small sizes, but become striking in larger settings. Curled terminals on letters such as g, j, q, and s, along with distinctive caps, create strong character and a memorable silhouette in headlines.
