A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline detailing. Strokes transition quickly from fine joins to fuller verticals, producing a bright, airy texture and a distinctly calligraphic rhythm. Serifs are small and sharp with tapered terminals, and many curves finish in pointed, slightly flared tips. Uppercase forms are stately with generous proportions, while the lowercase shows compact, neatly controlled shapes and narrow apertures that keep the overall color light and refined. Numerals match the letterforms with similarly thin diagonals and crisp, high-contrast curves.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and high-end editorial layouts where its contrast and hairline details can be appreciated. It also works well for luxury branding, beauty and fashion identities, and premium packaging when set at comfortable sizes with careful spacing.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, evoking fashion publishing and refined branding. Its crisp, precise finishing reads as formal and contemporary-classic rather than rustic or academic, with an intentionally ornamental edge in a few terminals that adds sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion interpretation of a classic serif: elegant proportions, crisp hairline finishing, and a refined, showy contrast that stands out in prominent typographic roles.
In text, the strong contrast and fine serifs create a shimmering page texture that rewards larger sizes and generous spacing. The design includes several distinctive pointed terminals and tapered joins that give it a signature, slightly dramatic personality without becoming overtly decorative.
