A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs that taper to sharp points. The capitals are stately and fairly wide, with smooth, rounded bowls and a consistent vertical axis; diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are clean and sharply cut. Lowercase forms keep a traditional, two-storey a and g, compact apertures, and a moderate x-height, producing an even text color despite the contrast. Numerals are lining and similarly modeled, with strong verticals and elegant curves that match the letterforms’ rhythm.
Well-suited to long-form text in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs strongly in headlines, pull quotes, and section openers, where the contrast and sharp finishing details can read as elegant and premium.
The overall tone is classic and polished, evoking book typography and editorial tradition. Its sharp serifs and bright contrast give it a confident, slightly dramatic presence that reads as cultivated and authoritative rather than casual.
The design appears intended as a conventional, literature-oriented serif that balances traditional readability with a refined, high-contrast sparkle. It aims to provide a dependable text rhythm while offering enough sophistication for display moments in editorial and formal branding contexts.
Spacing and rhythm feel calibrated for continuous reading, with sturdy stems anchoring the line and finer hairlines adding sparkle at larger sizes. The design leans toward traditional proportions and restrained detailing, avoiding quirky features while still feeling expressive through contrast and terminal sharpness.
