A delicate serif with thin hairlines and gently tapered stems, showing clear bracketed serifs and smooth, calligraphic modulation. The forms feel compact and vertically oriented, with small counters and a steady, even rhythm across text. Curves are clean and controlled (not overly rounded), and joins are tidy, giving the letters a crisp, engraved-like finish. Numerals are similarly slender with elegant curves and light terminals, matching the overall restrained texture.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and literary or cultural publishing where a refined serif texture is desired. It also fits upscale branding, invitations, and title treatments that benefit from a poised, classic voice, especially at moderate to larger sizes where the fine details stay clear.
The font conveys a traditional, cultivated tone—quietly elegant rather than loud. Its fine detailing and measured proportions read as scholarly and editorial, with a sense of heritage and restraint suited to formal communication.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary take on a classical text serif: maintaining traditional proportions and bracketed serifs while emphasizing a lighter, more elegant color on the page. It aims for readability with sophistication, prioritizing graceful modulation and a polished, print-like finish.
In the sample text, the light stroke weight produces an airy page color, with capitals standing tall and slightly more sculpted than the lowercase. Spacing appears comfortable for display-to-text use, though the thin strokes and compact interiors give it a more delicate presence than a rugged workhorse serif.
