This is a delicate oldstyle serif with very thin hairlines, gently bracketed serifs, and a smooth, calligraphic modulation that reads as controlled rather than sharp. Proportions feel balanced and traditional, with rounded bowls, a softly modeled stroke flow, and a steady baseline presence. Spacing appears generous, contributing to an open rhythm in both capitals and lowercase, while figures keep the same light, elegant color as the text.
It works best for editorial typography where a light, polished serif is desired—magazine features, book interiors at comfortable sizes, and literary or cultural titles. The airy color also suits formal stationery and invitation-style materials where elegance and restraint are priorities.
The overall tone is refined and quiet, with an understated, literary feel. Its lightness and controlled contrast suggest formality without heaviness, giving it a graceful, cultivated voice suited to premium editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a refined, high-end sensibility, emphasizing graceful modulation, classical structure, and an open reading rhythm.
Uppercase forms lean toward classical Roman construction, and the lowercase shows an oldstyle flavor with a two-storey “g” and a fluid, slightly calligraphic texture. The numerals are slender and elegant, matching the text’s restrained presence.
