A stylized serif with extremely thin hairlines and sharp, tapering terminals that create a cut-paper, blade-like impression. Strokes show a rhythmic mix of slender verticals and gently swelling curves, with frequent wedge-like serifs and pointed joins. Uppercase forms are narrow and statuesque, while the lowercase introduces more calligraphic movement—especially in rounded letters—giving the overall texture a lively, shimmering color at text sizes. Numerals follow the same ornamental logic, with crisp diagonals and high-contrast-looking details produced by tapering rather than heavy thick strokes.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, posters, and elegant packaging where its razor-thin details can be appreciated. In longer passages it can work for short editorial pull quotes or opening spreads when set large with generous leading and careful tracking.
The tone is refined and theatrical: elegant at first glance, but with a slightly edgy, avant-garde sharpness. It suggests runway typography and art-direction-driven layouts where delicacy and drama are both desirable.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic serif proportions through a highly refined, ornamental lens, emphasizing sharp terminals and delicate hairlines for a premium, art-directed look.
Many letters feature distinctive incisions and asymmetrical flares that read as intentional ornamentation rather than traditional bracketed serif construction. The thin connections and acute terminals make spacing and size critical—larger settings emphasize the sculptural details, while smaller settings increase sparkle and fragility.
