A delicate serif with hairline-like strokes and gently bracketed serifs. Proportions are fairly classical, with tall capitals and a modest, balanced x-height that keeps lowercase forms open and readable. Curves are smoothly drawn and the rhythm is even, with restrained detailing and clean terminals; the overall texture stays light and sparkling in text. Figures and punctuation follow the same thin, precise construction, emphasizing elegance over heaviness.
Well suited to editorial typography, book and magazine settings, and other contexts where an elegant, high-end serif voice is desired. It can also work for invitations, packaging, and refined brand identities, especially at sizes where the thin strokes remain clear.
The tone is refined and airy, suggesting editorial sophistication and a quiet, cultured presence. Its light color on the page feels poised and formal rather than loud, lending a sense of polish and restraint.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a contemporary take on a classic text serif: graceful, lightly drawn, and consistent, prioritizing sophistication and typographic finesse in display and high-quality text applications.
The design maintains consistent stroke finesse across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive, controlled texture. Wide internal counters and careful spacing help the font avoid looking brittle despite its thin strokes.
