This is a delicate text serif with slim stems and fine, bracketed serifs that taper cleanly into the strokes. The drawing favors verticality with tall capitals and long extenders, giving an open, airy texture in paragraphs. Curves are smooth and restrained, with compact bowls and gently narrowed joins; terminals tend to end in subtle wedges or tapered tips rather than blunt cuts. Numerals and punctuation share the same light, crisp construction, keeping a consistent rhythm and an even, quiet color on the page.
It fits best in editorial and long-form typography where a light, sophisticated serif is desired—books, magazines, essays, and cultural programs. It can also serve well in high-end invitations or brand materials when set with generous spacing and comfortable leading to preserve its airy texture.
The overall tone is refined and literary, suggesting a classic, cultured voice rather than a utilitarian one. Its lightness and controlled detailing feel poised and formal, well suited to elegant editorial settings and understated branding.
The design intent appears to be a conventional, readable serif with a notably delicate presence—prioritizing elegance and smooth text rhythm over bold emphasis. Its tall proportions and fine detailing aim to create a graceful page color and a classic, bookish atmosphere.
Uppercase forms are notably tall and slender, contributing to a high-waisted silhouette. The lowercase shows traditional proportions with clear differentiation between letterforms (for example, distinct shapes for i/j and open apertures in several characters), supporting calm readability while maintaining a graceful, slightly mannered character.
