A light serif with an oldstyle, calligraphic skeleton and gently bracketed serifs that often flare into small wedge-like terminals. Strokes show subtle modulation and a lively rhythm, with slightly narrow proportions and compact lowercase forms. Curves are softly drawn and a bit idiosyncratic—seen in the rounded bowls, the ear and tail treatments, and the occasional asymmetry—while capitals remain relatively restrained and open. Numerals and punctuation follow the same delicate, bookish construction, keeping a consistent, airy color on the page.
Well-suited for editorial typography, book interiors, and magazine features where a classic serif voice is desired without feeling generic. It can also work nicely for literary titles, pull quotes, and invitation-style typography, especially at sizes where its delicate terminals and calligraphic nuances are clearly visible.
The overall tone feels literary and classical, but with a quiet eccentricity that keeps it from reading as purely formal. It suggests a cultured, editorial voice—refined and gentle—while the slightly unusual terminals add a faintly whimsical, storybook character.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a traditional oldstyle serif through a more expressive, slightly decorative lens—keeping familiar proportions and reading comfort while adding distinctive terminal and serif shaping for personality.
In text settings it maintains a light, elegant texture with noticeable rhythm from the curved joins and flared endings. The design’s distinctive details become more apparent at larger sizes, where the individual terminal shapes and soft modulation read as intentional character rather than texture.
