A refined serif with crisp, wedge-like bracketed serifs and subtly flared stroke endings that give the stems a gentle swelling toward terminals. The design shows moderate contrast with clean, confident verticals and tapered joins, producing a slightly calligraphic stress without feeling decorative. Proportions are relatively narrow with compact lowercase and a notably short x-height, while capitals appear tall and commanding. Curves are smooth and open, and diagonals (notably in V/W/Y) land in sharp, elegant points; numerals and punctuation follow the same restrained, print-oriented rhythm.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial, and magazine layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also serve for refined headlines, titles, and packaging or branding applications that want a classic, authoritative feel without heavy contrast.
The overall tone is classical and editorial, suggesting tradition, credibility, and a literary voice. Its restrained detailing reads serious and polished, with just enough flare to feel crafted rather than purely mechanical.
The font appears designed to balance traditional serif structure with subtle flaring and crisp terminals, aiming for a timeless, print-friendly voice. Its narrow set and short x-height suggest an intention toward economical composition and a formal, literary tone.
In text, the tight lowercase and short x-height create a dignified, slightly old-style color that benefits from comfortable leading. The flared terminals add warmth and presence at larger sizes while keeping paragraph texture controlled.
