A delicate serif design with very open, rounded bowls and long horizontal spans that give the letters a spacious, airy footprint. Strokes stay relatively even while tapering into flared, hairline-like terminals and thin bracketed serifs, creating a crisp, ornamental edge without heavy mass. Curves are generously drawn and slightly calligraphic, with subtle swash-like flicks on joins and terminals; the overall rhythm is smooth and flowing rather than rigidly geometric. Uppercase forms read stately and wide, while lowercase maintains clear differentiation with light, elegant details in the ears, tails, and finials.
Best suited to headlines, short passages, and pull quotes where its width and delicate details have room to breathe. It can add sophistication to branding, packaging, and invitation-style materials, especially when set with generous tracking and leading.
The font conveys a refined, slightly theatrical elegance—more display-minded than utilitarian. Its airy width and ornamental terminals suggest a classic, boutique feel with a hint of vintage poster typography.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional serif foundation infused with ornamental, calligraphic finishing—aimed at creating an elevated, distinctive tone for display and identity work while remaining legible in carefully set text.
In text, the wide proportions and thin finishing strokes create a pronounced horizontal cadence that can feel luxurious at larger sizes. The numerals and lowercase show the same decorative tapering and open shapes, reinforcing a cohesive, stylized personality across the set.
