A very delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline strokes and sharp, tapered terminals. Serifs are fine and generally bracketed, with a smooth calligraphic modulation that creates a polished vertical rhythm. Capitals are stately and narrow-leaning in feel, with generous internal counters and crisp apexes; lowercase shows a compact, traditional structure with a two-storey a and g, and long, slender ascenders and descenders. Numerals follow the same refined logic, with thin joins and pointed finishing details that keep the texture light and airy in paragraphs.
Well suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, book covers, and premium branding where a refined, high-contrast serif is desired. It can also work for short editorial passages at comfortable sizes where its hairline features remain crisp.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, projecting an editorial, fashion-forward sensibility. Its crisp contrast and needle-thin details suggest sophistication and restraint rather than warmth or ruggedness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif construction, emphasizing elegance, sharp finishing, and a light, airy text color for upscale editorial and brand communication.
In text, the font produces a bright page color with pronounced sparkle from the contrast and hairlines. Fine details—especially in diagonals and serifs—make it most convincing when given enough size and clean reproduction conditions to preserve its sharp terminals.
