A delicate text serif with hairline-thin strokes and pronounced contrast between stems and joining curves. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with tapered terminals and a slightly calligraphic modulation that keeps curves smooth and open. Capitals feel spacious and carefully proportioned, while lowercase forms maintain a calm, even rhythm; the two-storey a and g, narrow i/j, and crisp t crossbar reinforce a traditional reading texture. Numerals are similarly light and elegant, with curved forms that stay clean at display sizes.
Well suited to editorial typography, book and magazine work, and other contexts where an elegant serif voice is desired. It also fits upscale invitations, packaging, and branding where a light, refined tone and high-contrast detailing can be given enough size and breathing room.
The overall tone is refined and literary, projecting a quiet, formal sophistication. Its airy construction and sharp detailing suggest a premium, editorial character rather than a utilitarian one.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif with a more luxurious, high-contrast finish—balancing classical proportions with finely drawn details for sophisticated text and display use.
At larger sizes the thin hairlines and sharp joins read as polished and precise; in dense settings the design’s delicacy becomes a defining trait, favoring careful typesetting and generous spacing. The italic is not shown, but the roman exhibits consistent stress and a cohesive, classical rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
