A delicate text serif with fine hairlines, modest thick–thin modulation, and crisp, bracketed serifs that taper elegantly into stems. The proportions feel slightly high-waisted with tall ascenders and a relatively restrained x-height, producing an open, airy rhythm in running text. Curves are smoothly drawn and controlled, with carefully shaped terminals and a calm, even color despite the light stroke weight; overall spacing reads balanced and measured, helping long lines stay clean and readable.
Well suited for book and long-form editorial typography where a light, elegant serif can add refinement while keeping paragraphs orderly. It also fits magazines, cultural programs, and understated branding where a classic, polished tone is desired; in larger sizes it can serve for headings, pull quotes, and invitation-style materials that benefit from its crisp serifs and airy rhythm.
The tone is refined and literary, projecting a quiet formality without feeling ornate. Its lightness and crisp detailing give it an editorial, cultured voice—suited to polished reading experiences and understated sophistication rather than loud display.
Designed to deliver a conventional, readable serif voice with an emphasis on elegance and typographic restraint. The intention appears to balance classical letterforms and clean modern drawing so text feels dignified and smooth in continuous reading.
Uppercase forms lean toward classical Roman construction with graceful joins and restrained flair, while the lowercase shows gently calligraphic influences in strokes and terminals. Numerals appear slender and elegant, matching the text weight and maintaining the same poised contrast and serif treatment.
