A very thin, hairline slab serif with wide proportions and crisp, unbracketed terminals. Strokes are consistently light with sharp joins and square-ended serifs that read as small, flat caps rather than heavy blocks, giving the design a precise, engraved quality. Curves are generous and open, counters are large, and spacing feels roomy, producing an elegant, lightly drawn rhythm. The italic is not present; forms remain upright and controlled, with distinctive, slightly decorative touches in several lowercase and numerals.
Best suited to display and large text where its hairline strokes and open shapes can stay crisp—such as headlines, pull quotes, book and magazine covers, boutique branding, and formal invitations. It can work for short passages in well-printed or high-resolution contexts, but the extremely light weight favors generous sizes and supportive contrast.
The overall tone is quiet and cultivated: refined and bookish with a subtle antique flavor. Its thin outlines and poised spacing convey sophistication and restraint, leaning toward editorial elegance rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic slab-serif structure in an unusually delicate, wide-set drawing, combining crisp typography with lightly ornamental details for an elegant, curated presence.
The lowercase shows a gentle calligraphic influence in select details (notably in letters like a, g, and y), while keeping a consistent, minimal stroke weight. Numerals include curving, oldstyle-like gestures, which adds a classic, boutique character in display settings.
