A delicate serif with pronounced stroke contrast and finely tapered hairlines. Serifs are small and crisply bracketed, with sharp, lightly flared terminals that give the outlines a precise, engraved feel. Proportions run generously wide with open bowls and ample internal space, producing an even, spacious texture in text. The lowercase shows a two-storey “g” and “a”, a slender, slightly left-leaning “e” crossbar, and compact punctuation-like detailing in joins and terminals, all contributing to a composed, bookish rhythm.
Well-suited to editorial design, book and magazine typography, and other print-forward layouts that benefit from a bright, high-contrast serif. The wide proportions and open forms also make it effective for tasteful headlines, pull quotes, and refined invitations or programs where elegance and clarity are both desired.
The overall tone is cultured and formal, evoking editorial typography and classical publishing. Its light touch and high-contrast sparkle feel refined and ceremonial, while the wide set and open counters keep it calm and readable rather than ornate.
This design appears intended as a conventional text serif interpreted through a light, high-contrast lens: crisp details, airy spacing, and classical proportions aimed at producing an elegant, polished reading experience in display and high-quality text settings.
In the sample text, the font maintains a consistent vertical axis and steady baseline, with a shimmering page color driven by hairline horizontals and delicate serifs. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and include subtle curves and tapered ends, aligning well with the letterforms for mixed text settings.
