A delicate serif with extremely fine hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation throughout. Serifs are small and sharply cut, with a clean, contemporary finish and minimal bracketing. Uppercase forms feel tall and stately with generous counters, while the lowercase maintains a measured, readable rhythm and a moderate x-height. Curves are smooth and tensioned, and diagonals and joins stay crisp, producing a polished, high-end texture at display sizes.
Best suited to magazine headlines, pull quotes, and large-format editorial typography where its contrast and fine serifs can stay intact. It also works well for luxury branding, beauty packaging, and refined invitations or certificates, especially when paired with a quieter sans or a low-contrast serif for supporting text.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, with a distinctly editorial kind of drama that reads as premium and curated. Its thin strokes and sharp detailing convey sophistication and restraint, leaning toward fashion and cultural publishing aesthetics rather than utilitarian text color.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice for display and editorial settings, prioritizing elegance, sharp detail, and a premium tone over rugged small-size durability.
Because the thinnest strokes approach hairline thickness, the face relies on ample size and good reproduction conditions to preserve detail. The numerals and caps match the same refined contrast and will feel most at home when spacing and leading allow the airy structure to breathe.
