A delicate, high-contrast serif with fine hairline strokes and tapered, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a measured, vertical posture with generous counters and a light overall color, while joins and terminals stay crisp and controlled. Uppercase proportions feel stately and open, and the lowercase maintains a conventional text rhythm with clear differentiation between rounds and stems; numerals follow the same thin–thick logic with smooth curves and fine finishing strokes.
Well suited to editorial typography such as books, magazines, and long-form reading where a classic serif texture is desired. It also works for invitations, cultural branding, and refined headings where a light, high-contrast serif can convey sophistication.
The tone is refined and literary, leaning toward classic editorial elegance rather than assertive modernity. Its lightness and sharp detailing give it a calm, elevated voice suited to sophisticated, formal communication.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, high-contrast reading experience with a polished, upscale finish. Its controlled shapes and fine serifs suggest an emphasis on elegance and typographic nuance in both text and display applications.
The sample text highlights a consistent contrast pattern and clean curves in both text and display sizes, with an airy texture that benefits from comfortable line spacing. The overall impression prioritizes grace and precision over robustness, making it most convincing when not forced into dense or low-resolution settings.
