A refined text serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clean, upright build. The serifs are delicate and bracketed, with sharp entry and exit points that keep the color light and crisp on the page. Uppercase forms feel classical and relatively narrow, while the lowercase shows compact, bookish proportions with clearly articulated bowls and terminals. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, reading elegant and slightly calligraphic in their curves without becoming ornamental.
Well-suited to long-form editorial typography such as book interiors and magazine articles where an elegant, traditional serif voice is desired. It also performs nicely in refined headlines, invitations, and brand systems that benefit from a cultured, high-finish appearance, especially at medium and larger sizes.
The overall tone is polished and literary, projecting a quiet authority associated with books, magazines, and cultured branding. Its fine detailing and restrained rhythm convey sophistication more than warmth, with an editorial, gallery-like poise.
The font appears designed to deliver a classic reading experience with a modern, polished surface—balancing traditional serif construction with crisp, high-contrast detailing for contemporary editorial and brand use.
The design leans on vertical stress and tapered strokes, giving round letters a sculpted feel and making diagonals and joins appear especially sharp. At larger sizes the hairline details and terminal shapes become a key part of the character, while the consistent, measured spacing supports continuous reading in display-to-text settings.
