A delicate outline serif with a traditional, bookish skeleton and gently bracketed serifs. The contours are drawn as single-line strokes, producing an airy, engraved feel while keeping forms clear and well-proportioned. Capitals are sturdy and classical, with rounded bowls and moderate apertures, while the lowercase shows familiar text-face details such as a two-storey “a,” a compact “e,” and an oldstyle-style “g.” Numerals follow the same restrained, serifed construction, and the overall rhythm is even and carefully paced.
Best suited for display settings where the outline effect can be appreciated: headlines, pull quotes, posters, covers, and premium packaging. It can also work for short editorial titling and branding marks when paired with a solid text companion for longer reading.
The font reads as elegant and understated, with a quiet formality that suggests print tradition and editorial polish. Its outline construction gives it a light, decorative presence—more refined than playful—suited to tasteful, high-contrast compositions without feeling loud.
The design appears intended to translate a conventional serif text structure into an outline treatment, preserving classic proportions while adding a decorative, print-like finish for display typography.
Because only the outer contours are present, interior counters and thin joins can visually soften at small sizes, while at larger sizes the drawn outlines become a defining feature. The punctuation and curves maintain consistent contour weight, reinforcing a cohesive, engraved-like texture across lines of text.
