A crisp serif with strong thick–thin modulation and sharply defined, bracketed serifs. The capitals feel stately and structured, with pointed joins and tapered terminals that suggest a calligraphic influence without becoming ornate. Lowercase forms read clearly at text sizes, with a moderately compact rhythm, sturdy stems, and open counters; curves are smooth and the contrast is most evident in rounds and in the numerals. Overall spacing and proportions support continuous reading while retaining a slightly sculpted, display-friendly presence in headings.
Well suited to editorial typography such as long-form articles, book interiors, and magazine layouts where clarity and tradition are desirable. It also performs strongly in headlines, section titles, and refined branding applications that benefit from a confident, classic serif voice.
The tone is traditional and editorial, evoking printed books, newspapers, and institutional typography. Its high contrast and decisive serifs give it a confident, authoritative voice, while the subtle calligraphic shaping adds warmth and a sense of craft.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with elevated contrast and sharpened detailing—aiming for strong readability in paragraph settings while providing enough elegance and structure to carry display roles in editorial and formal contexts.
The italic is not shown; all samples appear upright. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic as the letters, with clear differentiation and a slightly dramatic silhouette suited to pull quotes and titling as well as text.
