A refined, high-contrast serif with slender hairlines and crisp, bracketed serifs. The capitals are stately and lightly proportioned, with clean, vertical stems and tapered joins that emphasize a vertical stress. Lowercase forms are compact and disciplined, with a moderate x-height and carefully controlled apertures; the italic is not shown, and the roman maintains a consistent upright rhythm. Numerals and punctuation match the delicate stroke modulation, with round figures showing thin connecting strokes and precise terminals.
Well suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and magazine settings where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also perform nicely for elegant headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials such as invitations or programs, especially when set with comfortable leading and sufficient size to preserve the hairline details.
The overall tone is polished and literary, with a calm, cultured presence suited to sophisticated typography. Its delicate detailing and sharp finishing give it a luxe, editorial feel rather than a utilitarian one.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic reading serif with a contemporary crispness—prioritizing elegance, contrast, and typographic refinement for high-end text and display use.
In longer text, the thin hairlines and high modulation create a bright, airy texture with pronounced stroke rhythm; spacing appears designed for continuous reading, though the finest details will benefit from adequate size and printing/screen conditions. Distinctive touches include the crisp, wedge-like serif endings and the graceful curvature on letters like S, G, and the two-storey g.
