A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic, with tapered joins and pointed terminals that keep the texture bright and airy. Uppercase forms feel stately and carefully proportioned, while the lowercase shows traditional details like a two-storey a and g, compact bowls, and tidy, controlled apertures. Numerals and caps share the same polished contrast and clean alignment, producing an even, composed rhythm in text despite the slender hairlines.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and essay-style layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs well for elegant headlines, pull quotes, and cultured branding applications like boutique packaging or formal invitations, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is cultivated and literary, with a sense of formality and quiet luxury. Its sharp contrast and fine finishing lend it a fashion-and-publishing feel, suitable for settings where sophistication and clarity are more important than rugged neutrality.
This font appears designed to deliver a classic text-serif voice with a modern, polished finish—prioritizing elegance, contrast, and a disciplined page rhythm. The letterforms aim to feel traditional and readable while adding a distinctly editorial, high-end sheen.
The design leans on fine hairlines and sharp serifs, so it reads best when reproduction is clean and sizes aren’t extremely small. In larger settings the sculpted strokes and pointed terminals become more expressive, giving headlines a poised, high-end character.
