A delicate serif with extremely thin hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation, producing a crisp, high-definition texture on the page. Serifs are small, sharp, and minimally bracketed, with tapered terminals that feel cut or pen-drawn rather than blunt. Curves show a vertical stress and a controlled, slightly calligraphic swelling, while joins remain clean and understated. Proportions lean narrow-to-moderate with ample counters; the lowercase is relatively compact with tall ascenders, and round letters (o, e) stay airy and open. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with elegant curves and thin connecting strokes that favor display sizes.
Works best for headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other display settings where the hairlines can stay intact. It also suits premium branding, packaging, and formal stationery where a refined, high-end voice is desired, and where printing or rendering quality is controlled.
The overall tone is polished and aristocratic—quietly luxurious rather than loud. It reads as contemporary editorial elegance with a classic backbone, suited to layouts that want sophistication, poise, and restraint.
Designed to deliver a modern Didone-like elegance: strong vertical structure, dramatic contrast, and razor-fine details that signal luxury and editorial authority. The intent appears focused on display clarity and stylish presence rather than utilitarian, small-size readability.
In text, the strong contrast creates a lively rhythm, but the finest strokes can appear fragile at smaller sizes or on low-resolution outputs. The capitals have a poised, poster-like presence, and the italic is not shown, reinforcing a formal, upright character across the sample.
