A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline terminals. The serifs are sharp and finely tapered, and many curves resolve into pointed, calligraphic-looking ends, giving the letters a crisp, etched feel. Uppercase forms are tall and graceful with generous counters, while the lowercase keeps a measured rhythm with narrow joins and small, precise details. Overall spacing reads open and light on the page, with a refined, high-contrast texture that emphasizes vertical strokes and clean curves.
This face suits editorial design, magazine typography, and book or chapter titling where a polished, high-contrast texture is desirable. It can also support luxury-leaning branding and printed materials such as invitations or programs, especially at display sizes where the hairline details remain clear.
The tone is poised and upscale, with a fashion/editorial sensibility and a distinctly literary formality. Its thin finishing strokes and sculpted curves suggest sophistication and restraint rather than warmth or robustness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast text serif: conventional structure and readability paired with sharper, more stylized terminals and an especially airy, refined stroke economy for a premium, editorial finish.
Several glyphs show distinctive, sharp curvature at terminals (notably in letters like C, S, and a), which adds personality while staying within a conventional text-serif framework. Numerals appear similarly refined, with thin joins and elegant curves that match the letterforms’ contrast and delicacy.
