A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline horizontals that give an overall airy, high-end sheen. Serifs are fine and sharply finished, with tapered, calligraphic joins and smooth, controlled curves. Uppercase forms feel stately and open, while the lowercase shows elegant, flowing bowls and a relatively restrained, readable x-height. Spacing and rhythm look even in text, with a crisp baseline and a distinctly vertical, polished presence.
Well-suited for editorial typography where elegance and contrast are desired—magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined title settings. It also fits luxury branding and packaging that benefits from a delicate, polished serif voice, especially at larger sizes where the hairline details can shine.
The font conveys refinement and formality, balancing classic bookish tradition with a fashion-oriented, premium feel. Its thin details and crisp contrasts read as sophisticated and quiet rather than loud or rustic, suggesting careful composition and high craft.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif, emphasizing sharp finishing, graceful curves, and a light, premium texture. It prioritizes elegance and typographic sparkle for composed editorial and branding applications.
In the sample text, the hairline strokes and sharp terminals create a sparkling texture at display sizes, while counters remain generous and clean. Numerals and capitals share the same poised contrast and fine finishing, reinforcing a consistent, editorial tone across letters and figures.
