A tall, slender roman with hairline-leaning strokes and crisp, lightly bracketed serifs. Letterforms are narrow and vertical, with a gently calligraphic modulation that gives curves and joins a soft, drawn quality rather than rigid geometry. Capitals are elegant and elongated, while the lowercase keeps a small x-height with long ascenders and descenders, creating a high-contrast rhythm between stems and counters. The numerals follow the same refined, narrow proportions and maintain an even, airy color in text.
This font suits display settings where a refined, airy voice is desired—book and chapter titles, magazine headlines, posters, and curated packaging. It can also work for invitations or short editorial pull quotes where its tall proportions and delicate serifs can be given room to breathe.
The overall tone feels delicate and slightly whimsical, like hand-rendered titling that has been refined into a consistent typeface. Its slender silhouettes and restrained ornament lean toward a literary, old-world mood, with a light, graceful presence rather than bold authority.
The design appears intended to evoke a hand-touched, literary serif aesthetic—thin, narrow letters with subtle calligraphic flavor that stays readable while adding personality. It prioritizes elegance and verticality, aiming for a distinctive headline and titling texture rather than dense, utilitarian body copy.
Round letters (like O, Q, and e) read as softly oval, and straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) stay clean and vertical, contributing to a composed texture. The narrow set and long verticals make spacing and line breaks feel prominent, so it tends to look most at home when given generous leading and margins.
