A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weighty, sculpted stems. Serifs are crisp and mostly bracketed, with pointed, wedge-like terminals that give many letters a chiseled finish. Curves are smoothly modeled with a slightly calligraphic stress, and the face keeps a steady vertical posture while allowing lively inner shapes—especially in bowls and joins. Lowercase forms feel traditional and text-oriented, with sturdy arches and clear counters, while capitals are elegant and slightly engraved in character.
Well-suited to book typography, editorial layouts, and magazine work where a refined serif texture is desired. It also performs strongly in headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or heritage-leaning branding where sharp contrast and classic letterforms add gravitas.
The overall tone is classic and literary, projecting formality and authority without feeling mechanical. Its sharp terminals and pronounced contrast add a refined, editorial energy that reads as traditional, cultured, and confident.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a conventional, text-first serif voice with added elegance from pronounced contrast and sharp, wedge-like finishing. The intention seems to balance readability with a distinctive, slightly engraved personality that stands out in editorial and display settings.
The design shows a noticeable interplay between broad strokes and fine hairlines, producing a bright page color in longer text. Numerals and capitals carry a strong display presence, while the lowercase maintains a familiar bookish rhythm; pointed terminals and crisp serifs can become visually prominent at small sizes or on low-resolution surfaces.
