A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and fine, hairline bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a calm, vertical posture with smooth, calligraphic curves and tapered terminals, producing an airy texture at text sizes. Capitals are stately and open, while the lowercase keeps a traditional rhythm with rounded bowls, a two-storey a, and a gently looped g; numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with elegant curves and light joins. Spacing appears moderately generous, supporting clarity while preserving a refined, light overall color.
Well-suited to editorial design such as magazine features, book interiors, and pull quotes where a refined high-contrast serif is desired. It can also serve luxury branding, packaging, and invitations, especially when paired with ample whitespace and high-quality printing or display rendering.
The font conveys an upscale, literary tone—poised and formal without feeling heavy. Its high-contrast strokes and fine detailing suggest sophistication and care, evoking classic book typography and contemporary fashion/editorial styling.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, polished take on a classic text serif: readable and composed, but with enough contrast and finesse to feel premium in display and editorial settings.
Distinctive details include a finely tailed Q, sharp diagonals on V/W/X balanced by thin joins, and soft, slightly swelling curves that keep the design from feeling mechanical. The light hairlines and small features read best when reproduction is clean and sizes are not too small.
