A hairline outline serif with a double-stroked construction that reads as an outer contour paired with a fine inline, creating hollow letterforms and slender counters. The design favors high refinement and careful, even stroke weight, with crisp terminals, narrow apertures, and a steady vertical axis. Capitals are tall and stately, while the lowercase keeps a relatively small x-height with long ascenders and descenders, producing a spacious rhythm at text sizes. Curves are smooth and controlled (notably in O/Q/C/G), and the numerals share the same thin, airy structural logic for a cohesive set.
Best suited to display settings where the outline and inline details can be appreciated—editorial headlines, luxury branding, logotypes, event invitations, and premium packaging. It can also work for short pull quotes or titling in print or on high-resolution screens where fine linework remains clear.
The overall tone is formal and ornamental, combining a classic bookish serif silhouette with a fashion-editorial lightness. Its outline construction gives it a boutique, invitation-like polish—luxurious but restrained rather than loud. The result feels airy, precise, and slightly vintage in flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined serif voice with an ornamental outline treatment, evoking engraved and fashion-oriented typography while staying structurally classical. Its proportions and delicate linework prioritize elegance and atmosphere over utilitarian text durability.
The extremely thin outlines and inline detailing make spacing and interior negative shapes prominent, giving the font an engraved, filigreed effect. At smaller sizes the fine contour work may visually soften, while at larger sizes the double-line construction becomes a defining feature.
