A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline connecting strokes. Serifs are small and sharply bracketed to unbracketed in feel, reading crisp at joins and terminals, while curves are smooth and controlled. Proportions are tall and compact, with narrow capitals and a restrained, vertical rhythm; counters remain open despite the fine strokes. The lowercase shows a classic text structure with a modest x-height, single-storey a and g, and long, fine ascenders/descenders that add elegance without becoming calligraphic.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, magazine and book cover titling, fashion and beauty branding, and refined invitations. It can work for short passages when set large with comfortable spacing, but its delicate hairlines favor high-quality print or well-rendered on-screen contexts.
The overall tone is poised and refined, projecting a polished, luxury sensibility. Its light touch and high contrast create an airy, sophisticated voice suited to high-end and cultural contexts rather than utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif for premium editorial and branding use. It prioritizes elegance, sharpness, and vertical poise, emphasizing a sophisticated page color over rugged readability.
In the sample text, the very thin hairlines and small internal joins suggest it will look best when given ample size, generous leading, and clean reproduction. Numerals follow the same elegant contrast and appear well-matched for editorial titling and refined figure work.
