A high-contrast serif with a calligraphic, slightly flared construction and sharp, bracketed serifs. Strokes transition from very thin hairlines to sturdier verticals, creating a bright, delicate page color and a lively rhythm in text. Proportions feel slender with moderately generous ascenders/descenders; curves are smooth and open, and joins often narrow into tapered terminals that read almost engraved. Uppercase forms appear stately and clean, while the lowercase maintains an elegant, bookish flow with subtly varied stroke endings and clear counters.
This font suits editorial design, book interiors, and long-form reading where a refined serif voice is desired. It also performs well for literary titling, cultural branding, and formal invitations or programs, especially at sizes that let the hairlines and tapered terminals remain clear.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, evoking traditional publishing and formal stationery. Its crisp hairlines and tapered details lend a sense of refinement and ceremony, while the steady upright stance keeps it composed and readable.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional text-serif foundation with an elevated, slightly calligraphic finish—balancing familiar proportions with sharper hairlines and expressive terminals to add sophistication in both headlines and continuous text.
Distinctive, slightly decorative terminals show up in letters like G, J, Q, and g, giving the face a recognizable personality without becoming ornate. Numerals are similarly refined, with thin connecting strokes and graceful curves that match the text’s contrast and rhythm.
