A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a predominantly upright, vertical stance. Strokes shift quickly from thick stems to hairline connections, producing sharp, clean counters and a bright page color at text sizes. Capitals feel stately and evenly proportioned, while the lowercase shows lively modulation with compact joins and tapered terminals. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the numerals and punctuation maintain the same sharp thick–thin rhythm for a consistent, polished texture.
Well suited to book interiors, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine typography where a classic serif voice is needed. It also performs strongly in display settings—chapter titles, pull quotes, and refined brand headlines—where the contrast and sharp serifs can be showcased.
The overall tone is classic and formal, with an editorial refinement that reads as confident and literary. Its sharp contrast and clean finishing give it a composed, authoritative feel suited to traditional typography rather than casual or playful settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, text-oriented serif with elevated contrast and a clean, contemporary finish. It aims to balance readability with a refined, authoritative presence for publishing and other formal communication.
The face maintains a steady rhythm in continuous text, with narrow hairlines and pointed details that add sparkle but can become delicate at very small sizes or on low-resolution output. Round letters and diagonals keep a disciplined geometry, helping headlines look crisp and well-structured.
