A refined serif with pronounced stroke contrast and delicate hairline details. Serifs are bracketed and sharply finished, with tapered terminals that suggest a pen-influenced construction rather than purely mechanical geometry. Proportions are classical and slightly narrow in the capitals, while the lowercase shows a compact x-height and generous ascenders/descenders that create an airy vertical rhythm. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are open, and overall spacing reads even in continuous text while preserving a crisp, polished silhouette.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also elevate headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials such as invitations or cultural branding, especially at sizes where the fine strokes have room to breathe.
The face conveys a quiet, literary elegance—more traditional than trendy, with a composed, editorial tone. Its high-contrast structure and fine finishing give it a formal, upscale character suited to cultured and authoritative communication.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-quality text serif that balances classic proportions with crisp, high-contrast detailing. It prioritizes a dignified page color and a traditional typographic voice, aiming for clarity and sophistication in print-like settings.
The italics are not shown; the sample indicates a steady text rhythm with clear differentiation between similar shapes (e.g., I/l/1) aided by serifs and contrast. Numerals appear lining and proportional, matching the serif detailing and contrast of the letters.
