This typeface is an extremely delicate serif with pronounced stroke contrast and hairline terminals. Letterforms are built from smooth, largely vertical main strokes and fine connecting curves, giving a crisp, polished rhythm. Serifs are small and sharp with minimal bracketing, and many joins taper into needle-like points. The capitals are tall and stately with generous counters and slightly calligraphic curves (notably in C, G, Q, and S), while the lowercase shows a single-storey a and g and narrow, elegant stems with thin cross-strokes. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with slender diagonals and light, refined curves.
Well suited to large-size applications such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and premium packaging where its fine serifs and high contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial passages in spacious layouts, but will generally perform best when given ample size and breathing room.
The overall tone is luxurious and composed, evoking fashion publishing and high-end branding. Its strong contrast and fine details communicate sophistication and restraint, with a slightly dramatic, display-led presence even in running text.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary, high-fashion serif aesthetic: maximizing elegance through hairline contrast, tall proportions, and crisp, pointed detailing while keeping the overall structure conventional and readable.
Spacing appears intentionally open, which enhances the airy feel and helps the thin strokes read cleanly at larger sizes. The italic is not shown; the roman relies on subtle curve tension and pointed terminals to add character without overt ornament.
