A delicate serif with hairline-thin strokes and sharp, wedge-like serifs set against strong vertical stems, producing a crisp, high-contrast rhythm. Curves are smooth and taut, with narrow apertures and fine terminals that often end in small beaks or points. Uppercase forms feel tall and poised with generous white space, while the lowercase keeps a restrained, bookish construction (double-storey a, compact e) that stays consistent in texture. Numerals follow the same refined logic, with thin links and clean, open counters that read best at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine/editorial typography, and luxury-oriented branding where the fine contrast can be appreciated. It also fits invitations and packaging that benefit from a formal, high-end voice; for long passages, it will be more comfortable at larger sizes and in high-quality print or high-resolution screens.
The overall tone is polished and luxe, combining classical letterform manners with a contemporary, fashion-forward sheen. Its airy hairlines and precise detailing suggest sophistication and restraint rather than warmth or ruggedness.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modern take on classic high-contrast serif typography, prioritizing elegance, sharp detailing, and a refined display presence while retaining enough conventional structure to function in short text settings.
Diagonal strokes (notably in V, W, X, and Y) taper to very fine endpoints, and joins remain crisp rather than rounded, reinforcing a sharp, print-like character. The font maintains a calm, even cadence in text despite its delicate features, though the finest strokes visually recede as size decreases.
