A delicate serif with hairline-thin strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are small and bracketed, with a lightly calligraphic feel in the joins and terminals. Proportions are expansive and open, with generous counters and a smooth, even rhythm across text. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and long ascenders/descenders, while capitals remain restrained and classical in structure.
Works well for editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine layouts where a refined serif texture is desired. It can also support luxury-oriented branding, invitations, and headline-plus-body systems that favor a light, elegant voice, provided it’s set with sufficient size and breathing room.
The overall tone is poised and cultivated, suggesting editorial polish and a quiet sense of luxury. Its lightness and spacious letterforms give it an airy, sophisticated presence suited to high-end, text-forward settings.
Likely designed to deliver a classical, bookish serif voice with an intentionally light, high-contrast silhouette. The combination of open proportions, tall lowercase, and restrained bracketed serifs suggests an emphasis on graceful readability and a polished editorial color.
Curved forms (C, G, O, S) read especially fluid, and the numerals share the same slender, high-contrast construction for visual consistency. In the sample text, the thin horizontals and fine serifs emphasize a crisp, refined texture that benefits from comfortable sizes and adequate spacing.
