A delicate serif with fine hairlines, lightly bracketed serifs, and a calm, upright structure. Strokes show a clear but not extreme contrast, with sharp terminals and clean joins that keep forms crisp at display sizes. Uppercase letters are stately and relatively tall, with ample interior space; round letters are smooth and slightly condensed in feel. Lowercase is compact with a moderate x-height and long, slender ascenders and descenders, giving the text a graceful vertical rhythm. Numerals are similarly light and formal, with classic proportions and minimal ornamentation.
Well-suited to editorial typography—books, essays, magazines, and long-form reading—where a refined serif texture is desired. It also works nicely for invitations, cultural branding, and understated luxury packaging when used with comfortable sizes and spacing.
The overall tone is refined and literary, suggesting traditional print typography with a modern, airy lightness. It feels poised and quiet rather than loud, projecting sophistication and restraint.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif executed with a particularly light touch—prioritizing elegance, vertical rhythm, and a clean page color over robustness. It aims to deliver a classic reading experience with a contemporary, minimal heaviness.
In the sample text, the thin strokes and sharp serifs create an elegant texture with noticeable white space between strokes and counters. The design reads as intended for clarity and polish, though the light weight makes stroke breaks more likely in very small sizes or low-resolution contexts.
