A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and an overall vertical, stately rhythm. Strokes resolve into fine, hairline serifs and pointed terminals, with smooth, bracketless-looking transitions that keep the forms crisp. Counters are open and clean, and the narrow proportions produce compact letterforms with a tall, graceful silhouette. Numerals and capitals maintain the same refined contrast, giving the set a consistent, high-fashion polish.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine mastheads, fashion and beauty branding, and elegant headlines where the high contrast can read as intentional detail. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or refined packaging copy when set at comfortable sizes with ample leading. For small sizes or rough production environments, its hairline features may require extra care to maintain clarity.
The font reads as poised and luxurious, with a calm, editorial tone. Its hairline details and crisp serifs suggest sophistication and formality rather than warmth or casualness. The overall impression is contemporary-classic: traditional structure presented with a modern, minimal delicacy.
The design intent appears to be a contemporary, high-contrast text serif that delivers an upscale editorial voice through narrow proportions, vertical emphasis, and sharply finished serifs. It aims to balance classical letterform conventions with a sleek, modern delicacy for premium presentation.
In the text sample, the thin horizontals and serifs become especially prominent, creating a bright, sparkling texture and a strong sense of line. The design favors smooth curves and careful spacing over robust color, so it benefits from conditions where its fine detailing can remain intact.
