A delicate serif with razor-thin hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation, creating a distinctly high-contrast, dressy texture. Serifs are sharp and minimal, with a clean, engraved feel rather than heavy bracketing. Capitals are tall and poised with ample interior space; rounds (O, Q) are smooth and spacious, while diagonals (V, W, X) form needle-like joins. Lowercase maintains a controlled, modern rhythm with narrow joins and fine terminals, giving text a light, airy color that depends on generous spacing and size.
Best suited for display work such as magazine headlines, cover lines, brand marks, and elegant titling where the fine hairlines can be preserved. It also works for short pull quotes and large-size editorial text in print or high-DPI digital contexts; for dense body copy, it benefits from larger sizes and comfortable tracking.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, evoking fashion publishing, premium packaging, and formal invitations. Its crisp contrast and fine detailing feel cultured and contemporary, with a sense of restraint and sophistication rather than warmth or rusticity.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion serif voice: dramatic contrast, crisp finishing, and stately proportions that elevate titles and branding. Its construction prioritizes elegance and visual impact over robustness at small sizes.
The thinnest strokes and sharp joins can visually disappear at small sizes or on low-resolution output, while the numerals and caps read especially striking at display sizes. The texture in paragraph settings is bright and refined, with noticeable sparkle from the hairlines and pointed serifs.
