A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and clear vertical stress. The letterforms are built on steady, bookish proportions with bracketed serifs and crisp, tapered terminals that keep the rhythm light and precise. Capitals are stately and moderately wide, while the lowercase shows open apertures and clean joins; round letters stay smooth and controlled rather than calligraphically exuberant. Figures appear lining with similarly high-contrast structure, maintaining an even texture in running text.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It also works effectively for refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal collateral like invitations or programs, especially when set with comfortable leading to preserve the thin strokes.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, projecting a sense of editorial authority and quiet sophistication. Its sharp hairlines and restrained detailing feel formal and composed, suited to content that benefits from an elevated, literary voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, high-end text serif voice with strong contrast and disciplined proportions, aiming for readability with a distinctly polished, print-oriented presence.
In the sample text, the spacing reads balanced and the forms maintain clarity at larger sizes, with a delicate sparkle from the hairlines. The italic is not shown; the displayed style relies on upright structure and contrast for character.
