A delicate text serif with hairline-like strokes and gently bracketed serifs. The design favors tall proportions and a clean, steady vertical stress, with rounded bowls and crisp terminals that keep the overall rhythm calm and controlled. Uppercase forms feel stately and open, while the lowercase shows traditional book-face cues such as a two-storey “a” and “g,” a modest, rounded “e,” and a long, slender “f.” Numerals appear oldstyle, with varying heights and gentle curves that blend naturally into running text.
Well suited to book and magazine typography, essays, and long-form editorial where a refined serif texture is desired. It can also serve for elegant headings, pull quotes, and formal printed materials such as invitations or programs, especially when given enough size and breathing room.
The overall tone is polished and literary, with an airy, boutique elegance that reads as classical rather than decorative. Its restrained detailing and light presence suggest formality and care, suitable for sophisticated editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif for cultivated publishing work, prioritizing a graceful silhouette and traditional letterforms over overt stylistic novelty. Its delicate detailing and oldstyle numerals suggest an emphasis on typographic sophistication in continuous text.
The thin strokes and fine serifs create a graceful page color at larger sizes, but they also make the face visually sensitive to low-resolution reproduction and harsh contrast. The ampersand and punctuation match the same understated, bookish style, avoiding flamboyant flourishes.
