A very delicate serif with razor-thin hairlines and pronounced contrast between thick and thin strokes. Serifs are fine and bracketed, often tapering into sharp points, and many terminals finish with small ball or teardrop forms that add a subtle ornamental accent. The overall proportions are generous and open, with wide, rounded bowls and a measured, upright stance; curves are smooth and carefully tensioned, while joins and apexes stay crisp. Spacing reads even in text, and the numerals share the same high-contrast, finely tapered construction as the letters.
Best suited to display and larger text sizes such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, book or album covers, and refined branding. It can also work for short editorial passages where an elegant, high-contrast texture is desired, especially in print-oriented layouts with ample whitespace.
The face conveys a cultured, literary tone—graceful and understated rather than loud. Its extreme finesse and ornamental terminals give it a slightly romantic, classic feel suited to premium, curated environments.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice with a classical foundation and a hint of ornament. Its wide, open shapes paired with hairline detailing suggest a focus on sophistication and visual finesse for premium editorial and brand typography.
The design relies on fine details—hairline serifs, thin crossbars, and pinpoint terminals—so it appears most at home when given enough size and breathing room. In running text, the light hairlines create an airy texture with a distinctly polished rhythm.
