A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and bracketed serifs that taper into pointed, wedge-like terminals. The proportions feel traditional, with moderate x-height and generous ascenders/descenders that create an open vertical rhythm. Counters are rounded and well-defined, while joins and curves show a subtly calligraphic stress, giving bowls and arches a gently sculpted look. Numerals and capitals carry a stately presence with clear contrast and sharp serifs, while the lowercase maintains a steady text rhythm with a slightly lively, oldstyle character.
Well-suited to book typography, editorial layouts, and other text-forward applications where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and formal titling where a refined, classical tone is appropriate.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, projecting formality and credibility without feeling overly ornate. Its sharp serifs and clear contrast give it an authoritative, editorial voice suited to traditional publishing and institutional communication.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, high-contrast text serif with a quietly calligraphic flavor—prioritizing readability, established typographic norms, and a polished, literary presence.
In setting, the contrast and tapered terminals read cleanly at display sizes, while the steady lowercase texture suggests comfortable long-form composition. The italic is not shown; the samples indicate a consistent roman voice with a restrained, conventional finish.
