A delicate text serif with tall proportions and clear stroke modulation, showing thin hairlines against stronger verticals. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with a crisp, slightly calligraphic finish that keeps the outlines sharp rather than soft. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are relatively tight, and the overall rhythm is compact and vertical. Lowercase forms stay restrained and traditional, while the numerals follow the same refined contrast and narrow set, maintaining consistent texture in running text.
Works well for long-form reading in books and literary publishing, and for editorial layouts where a refined serif texture is desired. It also suits pull quotes, section headings, and formal materials such as programs or invitations where an elegant, understated tone is important.
The tone is formal and cultivated, with a quiet sophistication that reads as bookish and editorial. Its slender build and crisp detailing lend a poised, upscale feel suited to serious or cultured contexts rather than casual or playful ones.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional reading experience with a refined, modern crispness—balancing classic serif conventions with a slimmer, more fashion-forward silhouette for editorial use.
Capitals present a dignified, stately presence with restrained flair, while the italic-like inflections in some terminals and joins suggest a subtle handwritten influence without becoming overtly decorative. In paragraph settings the face creates a light, airy color; spacing and narrow forms produce a tight, vertical cadence that benefits from comfortable line spacing at smaller sizes.
