A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and long, tapered hairlines. Serifs are sharp and minimally bracketed, giving terminals a crisp, cut-in feel. Uppercase forms are tall and poised with smooth, continuous curves, while lowercase maintains a conventional structure with a clean, slightly calligraphic flow. Overall spacing feels composed and airy, with a vertical rhythm and a polished, high-end finish in both letters and numerals.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks where its hairline details can be appreciated. It can also work for luxury packaging and high-end invitations when set with generous size and spacing; for longer text, larger point sizes and comfortable leading help preserve clarity.
The tone is luxurious and poised, evoking fashion mastheads and premium editorial typography. Its sharp contrast and fine details read as sophisticated and formal, with a contemporary edge rather than overtly historical ornament.
The font appears intended to deliver a polished, high-contrast serif voice for contemporary editorial and branding contexts, prioritizing elegance and visual impact through sharp serifs, refined curves, and a controlled vertical cadence.
The design relies on very fine strokes in places (notably in joins, crossbars, and hairline serifs), creating a distinctive sparkle at display sizes. The numerals match the letterforms’ refined contrast, and punctuation appears similarly slender and precise.
