A delicate serif with tall proportions and generous vertical emphasis, built from thin hairline strokes and clean, tapered joins. Serifs are fine and sharply cut, with subtle bracketing and a consistent, disciplined rhythm across capitals and lowercase. The lowercase shows a modest x-height with long ascenders and descenders, giving text a lofty, open texture; counters are narrow and oval, and curves stay smooth and controlled. Numerals follow the same light, calligraphic logic, with understated modulation and a few gracefully curved terminals.
Best suited to display and short-form text where its hairline serifs and tall proportions can be appreciated—magazine headlines, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, and refined brand applications. It also fits formal printed pieces such as invitations and programs, particularly when set with generous tracking and leading.
The overall tone is poised and literary—quietly luxurious rather than loud. Its thin strokes and high-waisted proportions evoke editorial sophistication and a formal, classical mood suitable for polished typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classic serif voice: minimal stroke weight, tidy construction, and an emphasis on elegance over robustness. Its proportions and fine finishing suggest a focus on high-end editorial and branding settings rather than utilitarian body text at small sizes.
In the sample text, the light serifs and tight internal spaces create a shimmering page color at larger sizes, while fine details (like hairline terminals and small apertures) become the primary character cues. The design’s verticality and restrained contrast keep it looking neat and composed, with a slightly ornamental flavor in select glyph endings and figures.
