A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered hairlines and fuller verticals, showing a subtly calligraphic construction. Serifs are bracketed and often flare into the stems, giving terminals a gently sculpted, ink-trap-free finish rather than blunt cuts. Proportions feel traditionally bookish: moderate x-height, clear ascenders, and rounded bowls with open counters. The italic is not shown; overall rhythm is steady and measured, with slightly varied letter widths that keep text color lively without becoming irregular.
Works well for book and long-form editorial typography where a classic serif voice is desired, and it also scales effectively for headlines and pull quotes thanks to its strong contrast and crisp detailing. It can support upscale branding and packaging that benefits from a traditional, refined typographic palette.
The tone is classic and authoritative, with an editorial polish that suggests tradition and care. Its flared detailing and sharp contrast add a refined, slightly dramatic elegance suited to premium or literary contexts.
Designed to evoke a traditional, literary serif model while adding character through flared, bracketed finishing and pronounced contrast. The overall intention appears to balance readability with a cultivated, editorial elegance.
Uppercase forms read stately and well-balanced, while the lowercase remains calm and legible, with familiar oldstyle cues (notably in the two-storey a and g). Numerals match the text face in contrast and presence, making them comfortable in running copy as well as in display settings.
