A delicate serif with hairline features and sharply finished, bracketed serifs. Stems stay slender while curved strokes broaden subtly, creating a refined modulation and a slightly calligraphic texture without becoming overtly formal. The capitals are spacious and stately with fine terminals, while the lowercase shows open counters and a modest, bookish rhythm; details like the single-storey a and g and the gently tapered joins add softness to the otherwise crisp construction. Numerals are similarly light and graceful, with thin diagonals and curved forms that match the text color.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and refined long-form settings where a light, elegant texture is desired. It can also serve display roles—titles, pull quotes, and premium branding—where its sharp serifs and graceful modulation read clearly and feel upscale.
The overall tone is poised and literary, with an airy, cultured presence that reads as editorial and classical rather than decorative. Its fine detailing suggests sophistication and restraint, lending text a polished, premium voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic text-serif voice with an emphasis on delicacy and elegance, balancing crisp serif detailing with open, readable forms. Its proportions and controlled modulation suggest a focus on refined page typography and tasteful display use.
The font’s light strokes and sharp terminals create a bright page color and emphasize whitespace, especially at larger sizes. In running text the thin horizontals and hairline serifs contribute to a shimmering texture, while the open bowls and generous curves help keep letterforms from feeling brittle.
