A refined serif with sharply cut, bracketed serifs and clear oldstyle influence. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with smooth, calligraphic transitions, producing a crisp rhythm in both capitals and lowercase. Proportions are fairly traditional: sturdy capitals with moderate widths, and a lowercase that reads comfortably with open counters and softly tapered terminals. Figures align visually with the text color, featuring strong verticals and elegant curves that match the face’s contrast and serif treatment.
Well-suited to book typography, longform reading, and editorial layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines and subheads in print or on-screen contexts that benefit from a traditional, authoritative look, especially when paired with generous spacing and comfortable leading.
The overall tone is classic and literary, evoking printed book typography and editorial tradition. Its high-contrast modulation and crisp serifs give it a formal, authoritative feel, suitable for content that aims to sound established and trustworthy rather than casual or experimental.
The font appears designed to deliver a conventional, book-oriented serif experience with a refined, high-contrast finish—prioritizing familiar proportions, comfortable reading rhythm, and a distinctly traditional tone for continuous text and editorial display.
The design maintains a consistent, even text color in paragraph setting while still displaying plenty of sparkle from its contrast and sharp finishing. Round letters (like O and o) appear slightly stressed, reinforcing an oldstyle, bookish character, while the serifs remain clean and well-defined for a polished appearance.
