A delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and finely tapered serifs that create a crisp, polished texture. The capitals feel proportioned and stately, with clean, open counters and controlled curves; the lowercase maintains an even rhythm with restrained terminals and a gently calligraphic modulation. Numerals follow the same thin–thick logic, reading sharp and sophisticated, with slender strokes and neatly finished endings.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, magazine typography, and book work where a refined, classic serif voice is desired. It can serve as an elegant display face for headlines and subheads, and it also fits premium branding and packaging when set with adequate size and spacing to preserve the hairline details.
The overall tone is poised and upscale, projecting a quiet confidence associated with literary and editorial typography. Its lightness and contrast add a sense of luxury and formality, while the straightforward, upright construction keeps it conventional and readable.
The design appears aimed at a traditional, high-end text serif expression: maximizing elegance through strong contrast and fine serifs while keeping the letterforms conventional enough for extended reading in editorial settings.
In text, the bright hairlines and small details give a sparkling page color and a distinctly ‘printed’ feel. The high contrast and fine serifs make it particularly sensitive to size and reproduction conditions, where the thinnest strokes can visually recede.
