A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairlines. The serifs are small and finely bracketed, with tapered terminals that keep the overall color light and open on the page. Proportions lean wide with ample sidebearings, while the curves are smooth and round, giving bowls and counters a spacious feel. Numerals follow the same restrained contrast and fine detailing, maintaining a consistent, polished rhythm in running text.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine work where a light, refined serif can add polish while staying readable at comfortable text sizes. It can also support formal invitations and identity systems that benefit from a classic, understated tone, especially when paired with generous leading and margins.
The overall tone is poised and literary, suggesting formality without heaviness. Its airy strokes and careful finishing convey sophistication and a calm, editorial confidence rather than display dramatics.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with an emphasis on elegance and whitespace, prioritizing a graceful reading rhythm and finely drawn details. Its wide set and light color suggest it was drawn to feel upscale and calm in editorial contexts.
The italic is not shown; all samples appear in a steady, upright roman with consistent spacing and clear differentiation between similar shapes. The design favors openness and refinement over dense texture, making the page feel bright and uncluttered.
