A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply finished, bracketed serifs. The letterforms feel tall and composed, with smooth, calligraphic curvature in rounds and a restrained rhythm in the spacing. Uppercase shapes are stately and slightly narrow with crisp terminals, while the lowercase keeps a traditional structure with clear differentiation between stems, bowls, and joins. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, reading cleanly with a slightly old-world, print-oriented texture.
Well suited to long-form reading contexts such as books, essays, and magazine features where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also support formal materials like invitations and programs, and lends a refined tone to branding or packaging when used at comfortable sizes with ample leading.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking classic book typography and editorial formality. Its fine strokes and crisp serifs convey elegance and authority, with a calm, traditional voice rather than a casual or playful one.
This design appears intended as a traditional, high-contrast text serif that brings a classic publishing sensibility to contemporary layouts. The focus is on elegance, disciplined structure, and a crisp typographic color that reads as cultured and formal.
In text, the high modulation creates a bright page color and a distinctly engraved feel, especially in larger sizes. The forms remain conventional and recognizable, prioritizing clarity and classic proportions over stylistic quirks.
