A delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline connections and sharply tapered terminals. Serifs are small and neatly bracketed, with a disciplined, upright posture and a calm, even rhythm. Round letters show smooth, controlled ovals, while vertical stems read as fine but steady, producing a crisp texture at text sizes. The lowercase is conventional and readable, with a single-story g and a compact, open-bowled e; spacing feels measured rather than tight, helping the light strokes stay distinct. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with thin joins and elegant curves, suited to continuous text as well as display settings.
Well suited for editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and literary layouts where a refined serif texture is desired. It also works for luxury branding, invitations, and headlines that benefit from high contrast and an elegant, traditional voice, especially on high-quality print or high-resolution screens.
The font conveys a composed, editorial tone—quietly luxurious rather than attention-seeking. Its light, polished finish suggests tradition, careful craft, and a sense of formality associated with books, culture, and high-end print.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic reading experience with a distinctly polished, high-contrast finish—balancing conventional proportions with a lighter, more elevated texture for sophisticated editorial and brand contexts.
In longer passages the hairline horizontals and fine serifs create a bright, airy color, with letterforms that remain classical and restrained. The overall impression is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, emphasizing clarity and refinement over sturdiness.
