This typeface is a delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and tapered, sharply finished serifs. Curves are smooth and controlled, with an overall vertical stress and a calm, upright stance. Proportions lean toward the narrow side in many letters, and spacing feels measured and even, creating a light, continuous rhythm in text. Lowercase forms are clean and traditional, with a double-storey “g” and a compact, unobtrusive “e,” while caps are dignified and restrained with fine joins and crisp terminals.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, cultural writing, and book interiors where a light, elegant texture is desired. It also fits formal applications like invitations, lookbooks, and premium branding systems that benefit from a refined serif voice.
The overall tone is refined and literary, with a quiet sense of luxury. Its thin strokes and polished detailing convey sophistication rather than robustness, giving it a poised, editorial character.
The font appears designed to deliver a classic text-serif feel with a distinctly light, high-contrast finish—prioritizing elegance, sharp detail, and a composed reading rhythm for polished page and display settings.
The design relies on subtle modulation and precise serif shaping for personality, so it reads best where rendering is clean and sizes are not too small. Numerals appear similarly high-contrast and understated, matching the text color and formality of the letters.
