A delicate serif with pronounced stroke contrast and hairline serifs that taper to fine points. The letterforms are largely upright with smooth, calligraphic transitions and gently bracketed serifs that keep joins soft rather than abrupt. Capitals are airy and stately, with generous interior space and carefully modulated curves; the lower case shows a relatively tall x-height and open counters that help maintain clarity despite the thin strokes. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with rounded forms and light terminals that keep the texture even in text.
Well suited to editorial design, book or long-form typography where a classic serif voice is desired, and magazine layouts that benefit from an elegant, high-contrast texture. It also fits refined branding, packaging, and invitations where a composed, premium impression is important.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking traditional book typography with a contemporary, fashion-adjacent finesse. Its light touch and crisp contrast feel upscale and composed, lending a sense of ceremony and restraint rather than warmth or ruggedness.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif reading experience with a notably light, high-contrast drawing that adds sophistication and visual sparkle. Its proportions and open shaping aim to preserve legibility while emphasizing elegance through fine serifs and controlled modulation.
In running text the rhythm is smooth and calm, with clear distinction between thick stems and hairline horizontals that produces a bright, shimmering page color. The finer details—thin crossbars, delicate joins, and tapered terminals—suggest it will look most confident at comfortable reading sizes and in high-quality reproduction.
