A refined text face with clear stroke modulation and gently tapered terminals. The letterforms balance rounded bowls with slightly calligraphic shaping, and the spacing reads even and measured in running text. Capitals feel stately and open, while the lowercase shows traditional proportions and softened joins that keep the texture smooth at paragraph sizes. Numerals are similarly old-style in feeling, with curved strokes and a consistent rhythm that matches the letters.
Well suited to book interiors, essays, and magazine typography where an even, comfortable paragraph color is important. It can also support upscale branding, cultural institutions, and formal collateral that benefits from a classic, polished tone.
The overall tone is literary and composed, with a subtle elegance that suggests long-form reading and thoughtful typography. It feels traditional without being ornate, leaning toward a quietly authoritative, editorial voice.
The design appears intended to provide a versatile, readable text voice with traditional detailing—prioritizing smooth rhythm, open counters, and an understated sophistication for continuous reading and editorial settings.
Round letters (like O, C, and e) maintain generous counters, helping the font stay legible despite its delicate detailing. Diagonal forms (V, W, X, Y) appear crisp and slightly tapered, adding a hint of sharpness to an otherwise soft, flowing texture.
