A hairline, all-outline serif with open counters and a consistent double-line construction that reads as an outer contour with a fine inner parallel line. Proportions are tall and slightly condensed, with long verticals, small-to-moderate apertures, and gently bracketed serifs that stay crisp despite the minimal stroke. Curves are smooth and controlled, while terminals and joins remain clean, giving the alphabet an even, refined rhythm. Numerals and punctuation follow the same delicate outlined logic, keeping the overall color very light on the page.
Best suited for display settings where the outline detail can be appreciated—headlines, event invitations, editorial openers, boutique packaging, and mastheads. It can work as a decorative accent face alongside a sturdier text companion, particularly in compositions aiming for a light, refined presence.
The font feels genteel and theatrical, balancing classic bookish manners with a hint of ornamental play. Its airy outline gives it a boutique, invitation-like polish, evoking engraved or display-lettering traditions rather than utilitarian text typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined serif voice in an outline format, using a consistent inline to create an engraved, ornamental impression while keeping overall texture light and elegant for display typography.
At larger sizes the inner inline becomes a key part of the identity, adding a subtle dimensional/engraved effect. Because the design relies on hairline outlines, the perceived weight can drop quickly at small sizes or on low-contrast backgrounds, so spacing and background choice will strongly affect clarity.
