A delicate serif with hairline strokes and pronounced vertical emphasis, combining crisp stems with fine, lightly bracketed serifs. The proportions feel spacious and slightly expanded, with generous sidebearings and a calm rhythm that keeps paragraphs from looking dense. Curves are smooth and round, with occasional calligraphic-like flourishes in terminals and diagonals; several letters show subtle doubled/inline-like contour effects that read as ornamental rather than structural. The lowercase sits low with a relatively short x-height and long extenders, giving the face a high-waisted, classical silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and elegant display settings where its thin strokes and refined serifs can remain crisp. It can work for magazine-style editorial typography and upscale branding or packaging when set with ample size and comfortable tracking; for long passages, it benefits from larger sizes and high-contrast printing or screens.
The overall tone is refined and airy, leaning toward an editorial, fashion-forward elegance. Its thin construction and ornamental touches add a gentle vintage and boutique character, suggesting formality without feeling heavy or stern.
Likely designed as a modern, high-fashion display serif that pairs classical proportions with extra delicacy and ornamental contouring. The goal appears to be a light, luxurious voice with strong visual finesse for titles and brand-led typography rather than utilitarian body copy.
In text, the light stroke weight and fine details create a bright page color, with punctuation and hairlines appearing especially delicate at smaller sizes. The italics are not shown; all samples read as upright with decorative terminal behavior appearing in both cases.
