This typeface is a delicate serif with lightly tapered, flared stroke endings and small, hairline-like serifs that feel drawn rather than engineered. Strokes show subtle modulation, with smooth transitions into terminals and a gently calligraphic rhythm. Proportions are relatively narrow and tall, with open counters (notably in C, G, e, and s) and a clean, uncluttered silhouette. The lowercase has a compact, readable build with crisp ascenders and descenders, while numerals are slender and elegant, matching the text color of the letters.
It suits editorial typography—books, magazine features, and long-form reading—where a light, elegant serif can maintain a consistent rhythm at comfortable sizes. It also works well for refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal printed pieces such as invitations or programs where a graceful, traditional voice is desired.
The overall tone is refined and literary, with a quiet elegance that suggests editorial polish rather than display extravagance. Its light touch and tapered endings give it a poised, cultured voice suited to sophisticated, understated design.
The design appears intended to merge classical serif proportions with gently flared, calligraphic terminals, producing an elegant text face that feels cultured and contemporary. The emphasis is on smooth reading texture, openness, and a sophisticated, understated presence.
The capitals read with a classical, inscriptional influence: wide curves are smooth and controlled, and diagonals (A, V, W, Y) feel sharp yet not aggressive due to the soft flare at stroke ends. In text, spacing appears even and calm, producing an airy page color that favors clarity and finesse over heaviness.
