A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a pronounced thick–thin rhythm. Stems are sturdy and vertical while hairlines are very fine, producing a sharp, glossy texture in text. Curves are smooth and controlled with a clear diagonal stress; joins and terminals feel neatly finished rather than blunt. Proportions are moderately narrow-to-normal with compact counters in many lowercase forms, and capitals have a stately presence without exaggerated width.
Well-suited to editorial design, magazine typography, and book interiors where a classic, high-contrast serif is desired. It also performs nicely for headlines, pull quotes, and formal stationery when set with enough size and leading to keep the hairlines clear.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, evoking book typography and formal print craft. Its sharp detailing and strong contrast give it an elegant, slightly dramatic voice suited to refined editorial settings.
The design appears aimed at a conventional reading serif with elevated contrast and a contemporary crispness—balancing classical proportions with clean, print-like finishing for confident, upscale typography.
Numerals echo the same contrast and serif treatment, with oldstyle-like curvature and delicate hairlines that visually harmonize with the lowercase. In the sample text, the font creates a dark, authoritative color at larger sizes, while the finest strokes suggest careful size selection for sustained readability.
