A delicate hairline serif with strong stroke contrast and a crisp, editorial rhythm. Capitals are built on narrow, vertical proportions with thin, bracketless-looking serifs and distinctive curled terminals that read like restrained swashes on entry strokes. Curves are smooth and controlled, with teardrop-like counters in round letters and a generally precise, high-finish outline. Lowercase remains light and tidy, pairing slim stems with subtle flare and occasional calligraphic inflection, while figures are equally fine-lined and elegant, with minimal weight in their joins.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, titling, pull quotes, and brand marks where its fine hairlines and ornamental capital terminals can be appreciated. It also fits formal materials like invitations and luxury packaging, and can work for short editorial passages when ample size and generous spacing are available.
The overall tone is sophisticated and high-end, balancing classical bookish cues with a decorative, couture-like flourish. Its ornament is poised rather than loud, giving text a graceful, airy sparkle suited to premium settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, luxury-leaning take on a classic high-contrast serif, adding distinctive curled terminals for memorability while keeping the underlying forms disciplined and legible. It aims to provide a recognizable, refined voice for premium display use.
The curled terminals on many capitals create a recognizable signature that becomes more prominent at larger sizes; in longer passages the thin hairlines and high contrast make the texture feel bright and spacious. The font’s personality is most evident in the uppercase set, where the swash-like hooks add ceremony without tipping into script.
