A refined serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation, featuring razor-fine hairlines and firm, vertical stress. Capitals are tall and poised with generous interior space, while joins and terminals stay crisp and controlled. Serifs read as delicate and bracket-free to lightly bracketed, giving the letterforms a clean, engraved feel; curves are smooth and taut, and diagonals (notably in V, W, Y) resolve to very thin hairline connections. Lowercase maintains a traditional structure with a relatively compact rhythm, small apertures, and narrow joins; the overall texture is airy because the thins recede strongly against the heavier stems. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with elegant curves and thin entry/exit strokes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, pull quotes, and high-impact display settings where the fine hairlines can be appreciated. It also fits premium packaging and luxury branding when used with ample white space and careful reproduction. For extended small-size text, it will generally benefit from slightly larger sizes and comfortable leading to preserve its delicate detailing.
The tone is polished and high-end, projecting luxury and restraint rather than warmth or friendliness. Its sharp contrast and fine details suggest sophistication and ceremony, with a distinctly editorial voice suited to cultured, fashion-leaning typography.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary, high-contrast serif aesthetic that evokes classic fashion and editorial typography. It prioritizes elegance, sharpness, and visual drama through extreme modulation and hairline finishing.
At larger sizes the hairlines and delicate serifs become a defining feature, producing a sparkling, high-fashion texture. In dense settings the thin strokes can visually fade compared to the strong verticals, so spacing and size will heavily influence perceived clarity.
