A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. Capitals are stately and relatively wide, with sharp apexes and clear vertical stress, while the lowercase shows compact, well-contained bowls and tapered terminals. Curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic in their transitions, and joins remain clean even at heavier strokes, giving the design a refined, print-oriented rhythm. Numerals appear proportional and traditional, with strong contrast and open counters that keep figures clear in running text.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial typography where a traditional serif voice is desired, and it also performs strongly for chapter titles, pull quotes, and formal headlines. The pronounced contrast and sharp serifs make it effective for institutional materials and classic branding where a literary, established feel is important.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, evoking book typography and traditional editorial settings. Its sharp serifs and confident contrast project formality and seriousness, with a slightly old-style warmth that keeps it from feeling sterile.
This design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances classic proportions with crisp detailing for a confident, print-classic presence. It prioritizes a steady reading rhythm and a formal voice that scales comfortably from text to display use.
Letterforms maintain a consistent, disciplined structure across cases, with relatively tight apertures and sturdy vertical stems that anchor the page. The italic is not shown, and the sample emphasizes its strength in headline-like sizes where contrast and serifs read as deliberate details.
