A delicate serif with hairline strokes and gently modulated contrast, set on a tall, narrow body. Stems are straight and clean, while joins and terminals show subtle, calligraphic shaping with small bracketed serifs and tapered ends. Curves are narrow and slightly organic, giving counters a slim, vertical feel; round letters stay compact, and diagonals remain sharp without becoming heavy. Overall rhythm is airy and lightly textured, with distinctive small details (notably in the lowercase and figures) that keep the design from feeling purely classical.
Well suited to editorial headlines, book and magazine titling, cultural or arts materials, and refined invitations where an airy serif texture is desired. It can also work for posters or pull quotes that benefit from a slender, elegant voice, especially at larger sizes where the fine details hold their character.
The tone is refined and literary, suggesting bookish sophistication with a faintly whimsical, old-world charm. Its thin, poised construction reads as elegant and careful, lending a cultured, editorial voice rather than a utilitarian one.
The design appears intended to offer a classical serif silhouette with a more individual, decorative edge, pairing narrow proportions and fine strokes with subtle calligraphic quirks. It aims to feel cultured and distinctive without becoming overtly ornate.
At text sizes the light strokes create a quiet, high-contrast shimmer, while at larger sizes the nuanced terminals and serif shaping become more apparent. Capitals appear statuesque and formal, and the lowercase introduces a more idiosyncratic, handwritten inflection that adds personality.
