A delicate text serif with very thin hairlines, slightly heavier stems, and gently bracketed serifs that keep the joins smooth rather than abrupt. The letterforms are open and generously spaced, with a broad, relaxed set and rounded bowls that feel carefully drawn rather than mechanical. Curves transition into straight strokes with subtle tapering, giving the design a lightly calligraphic rhythm; diagonal letters like V/W/X and the slanted terminals show controlled, sharp finishes without looking harsh. Numerals follow the same refined construction, with clean, graceful curves and restrained detailing that stays consistent across the set.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and refined long-form settings where an elegant serif texture is desired. It also works for invitations, cultural institutions, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a light, sophisticated presence, especially at larger sizes where the hairline details can shine.
The overall tone is poised and cultured, leaning toward a quiet, editorial elegance. Its light touch and spacious texture feel formal without becoming ornate, suggesting a classic, literary sensibility suited to composed, high-end typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif reading experience with a lighter, more elevated texture—prioritizing elegance, openness, and a smooth stroke rhythm over heaviness or ruggedness.
At text sizes it reads as a bright, breathable color on the page, with the thin strokes and fine serifs contributing to a polished, premium feel. In display settings the hairline details become a defining feature, emphasizing the font’s finesse and carefully balanced proportions.
