A tall, delicate serif with pronounced vertical emphasis and fine, hairline strokes. Serifs are sharp and lightly bracketed, giving terminals a crisp, pointed finish rather than blunt slabs. Curves are narrow and taut, with compact bowls and tight apertures, while many characters show slightly calligraphic join behavior (notably in the lowercase) that adds a subtle, handmade rhythm. Spacing feels airy and the overall color on the page is pale and refined, with a slender, high-contrast impression that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, pull quotes, book covers, and refined editorial layouts where a delicate serif voice can breathe. It also fits invitations and cultural posters that benefit from a narrow, elegant silhouette, especially when set at moderate to large sizes with generous leading.
The font conveys a poised, literary tone—polished and classical, yet with a faint eccentricity in its narrow forms and lively lowercase details. It feels reminiscent of old book titling and boutique editorial typography, balancing sophistication with a slightly whimsical, storybook sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver an elongated, high-fashion serif look with a classic foundation and decorative nuance, prioritizing elegance and distinctive character over neutrality.
The caps read stately and architectural, while the lowercase introduces more personality through narrow counters and distinctive descenders (especially in letters like g, j, and y). Numerals follow the same thin, elegant logic, leaning toward a display feel where finesse matters more than ruggedness.
