A refined serif with pronounced contrast between hairlines and main strokes and a gently calligraphic rhythm. Serifs read as sharp wedges and subtle flares rather than blunt slabs, with tapered stroke endings that add a slightly sculpted, engraved feel. Proportions are balanced and moderately narrow-to-normal, with clear vertical stress and smooth curve transitions. The lowercase shows a compact, readable build with open counters and a lively mix of thin joins and stronger stems that keeps text color light and airy.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine features, book typography, and long-form reading where an elegant, lightly set serif is desired. It also performs well for branding, headlines, and premium packaging or invitations that benefit from high-contrast refinement and sharp, flared detailing.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, suggesting heritage and craft without feeling overly ornate. It conveys a poised, cultured character suited to premium contexts where restraint and sophistication are desired.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical, high-contrast serif by combining crisp wedge-like serifs with subtly flared terminals for a distinctive, upscale texture. It prioritizes elegance and clarity in both display and reading sizes while maintaining a graceful, crafted tone.
Capitals present crisp apexes and finely tapered horizontals, while round forms maintain a clean, controlled silhouette. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with elegant curves and delicate finishing that benefits from comfortable sizing and spacing.
