A delicate serif design with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, sharply finished terminals. Serifs are fine and tapered rather than blocky, with a clean, polished edge and minimal bracketing. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are generous, and the overall rhythm is calm and even, with a distinctly vertical stress and a refined, contemporary finish. Numerals and capitals show careful proportioning and a slightly dressy, display-leaning stance while remaining readable in continuous text at larger sizes.
Well-suited to magazine layouts, book or journal display typography, and brand systems that need a refined serif voice. It performs especially well for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and titling where its thin serifs and strong modulation can be appreciated. It can also serve in upscale packaging and invitation work when set with comfortable tracking and ample leading.
The font conveys a poised, luxurious tone associated with fashion, publishing, and formal stationery. Its hairline details and sculpted contrast feel sophisticated and cultivated, leaning more toward glamour and prestige than warmth or rusticity.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, polished take on classic high-contrast serif typography, balancing sharp detail with controlled proportions for stylish display and premium editorial use.
In the text sample, the very fine horizontals and thin joins emphasize clarity at larger sizes and create a bright page color. Diacritics and punctuation appear understated and precise, matching the type’s overall restrained, high-finish aesthetic.
