A delicate slab serif with thin hairlines and lightly bracketed, squared terminals that read crisp without feeling mechanical. Strokes show noticeable contrast, with slim horizontals and joins against slightly fuller verticals, giving a composed, editorial rhythm. Proportions are balanced and fairly traditional, with generous apertures and rounded bowls; the overall texture is light, even, and spacious in text. Numerals and capitals maintain the same restrained detailing, with clean curves and precise serif placement.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and magazine features where a refined slab serif can add structure without heavy darkness. It can also work for understated branding, packaging, and invitations when a classic, cultivated voice is desired—especially at comfortable text sizes where the thin details remain clear.
The tone is quiet and polished, leaning literary and cultured rather than loud or rustic. Its light presence and tidy serifs suggest careful setting—appropriate for sophisticated, understated typography.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, light-toned slab serif that stays readable in continuous text while conveying a traditional, literary character. The restrained serifs and controlled contrast aim for versatility and polish rather than novelty.
In running text the font keeps a smooth baseline and consistent spacing, producing a pale but orderly color. The slab serifs are controlled and relatively small, functioning more as structural anchors than decorative blocks.
