A delicate, high-contrast serif with thin hairlines and sharper, darker main strokes that create a crisp vertical emphasis. Serifs are fine and tapered rather than blocky, with a smooth, controlled join into stems. Curves are clean and slightly calligraphic in their modulation, and the overall rhythm is even and poised, producing a polished page color despite the light weight. Capitals feel stately and proportioned, while the lowercase maintains clear counters and a restrained, conventional structure.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as book interiors, magazine features, and essay-style layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs nicely for display applications—headlines, pull quotes, and invitations—where its fine serifs and contrast can be appreciated without crowding.
The tone is refined and literary, with a quiet sense of luxury and formality. Its airy stroke work and precise contrast suggest editorial sophistication rather than casual warmth, giving text a composed, classic presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, high-contrast reading serif with a refined, contemporary finish—prioritizing elegance, crisp detail, and a composed rhythm for editorial and formal settings.
In the text sample, the contrast and fine serifs read especially crisp at larger sizes, where the thin strokes help preserve a light, elegant texture. Numerals and capitals share the same sharp contrast and slender detailing, reinforcing a cohesive, formal typographic voice across mixed content.
