A very thin, monoline serif design with gently flared, tapered terminals that read like understated wedge serifs rather than heavy brackets. Curves are clean and open, with generous counters and a measured, classical rhythm; verticals stay straight while joins and stroke endings often soften into slight hooks. Proportions are elegant and somewhat tall, with a noticeably small x-height against long ascenders and descenders, giving lowercase a light, floating presence. Capitals feel restrained and architectural, while certain forms (notably the Q, G, and some lowercase tails) add a subtle decorative twist without becoming ornate.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, invitations, and premium branding where delicacy and spacing can be preserved. It can work nicely in editorial and packaging contexts at larger sizes, especially when paired with a sturdier companion for body copy and small typography.
The overall tone is graceful and cultured, combining a bookish, old-world politeness with a faintly playful, boutique flair. Its hairline construction makes it feel precious and curated—more like a display face for tasteful moments than a utilitarian text workhorse.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, lightly decorative serif voice with a hairline, modern-fine stroke and a few distinctive gestures in key letters. It aims for sophistication and memorability through proportion, openness, and nuanced terminals rather than contrast or heavy ornament.
The ampersand and several lowercase letters show gentle calligraphic inflection at terminals, which adds personality while keeping the stroke weight consistent. Numerals are similarly fine and stylized, with smooth, open shapes that match the airy pacing of the alphabet.
