A delicate serif design with dramatic thick–thin contrast and hairline connecting strokes. Vertical stems dominate, while joins and terminals resolve into subtly flared, tapering endings that read as refined rather than blunt. Capitals are tall and stately with generous internal space (notably the round letters), and the overall rhythm is smooth and open with a restrained, editorial spacing feel. The lowercase is similarly airy, with thin entry/exit strokes and a small-bowl, two-storey “g” that emphasizes the high-contrast, calligraphic construction.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, mastheads, and other display-forward typography where its contrast and hairlines can read cleanly. It also fits luxury branding, packaging, and event materials such as invitations or programs, especially when ample whitespace and generous sizing are available.
The font conveys a polished, high-end tone—quietly luxurious and poised—suited to settings that benefit from finesse and clarity. Its sharp contrast and slender details suggest sophistication and a contemporary fashion/editorial sensibility with a classical underpinning.
Likely drawn to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice with subtly flared terminals—combining classic editorial elegance with a contemporary, minimalist finish.
Large sizes showcase the crisp hairlines, tapered terminals, and the elegant curvature in letters like S, C, and the numerals. In longer text the contrast creates a bright page color and a slightly sparkling texture, with punctuation and figures matching the same refined, hairline-forward character.
