A delicate, high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and very fine hairline terminals. The design shows a strongly vertical stress, crisp unbracketed serifs, and smooth, near-circular bowls that read cleanly at display sizes. Proportions are on the slender side with generous counters and a measured, even rhythm across text, while capitals feel tall and poised with restrained, sharp detailing. Numerals and punctuation follow the same hairline logic, with a notably ornamental, looping ‘2’ and graceful curves in figures like ‘8’ and ‘9’.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, magazine and fashion layouts, brand wordmarks, and elegant invitations where its hairline details can be preserved. It will also work for short text passages in print-oriented contexts when set with ample size and comfortable leading.
The overall tone is polished and cultivated, projecting a luxury and editorial sensibility. Its airy hairlines and formal contrast suggest sophistication and restraint rather than warmth or ruggedness.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern-classic, high-fashion serif voice: crisp, vertical, and meticulously controlled, with selective ornamental touches to add character without breaking its refined grid.
Several glyphs lean into calligraphic finesse—seen in the curled tail of ‘Q’, the fine-needle joins in ‘W’ and ‘V’, and the light, tapering terminals on letters like ‘a’, ‘c’, and ‘s’. The thin horizontals and hairline serifs make spacing and line breaks feel light and open, especially in larger settings.
