A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapering terminals. Serifs are small and bracketed, with hairline finishing that gives the forms a light, precise edge. Capitals show classical proportions and a steady vertical stress, while the lowercase blends compact bowls with gently calligraphic curves and slightly lively stroke endings. Numerals appear text-oriented with varied widths and a traditional rhythm, supporting continuous reading.
Well-suited to books, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine typography where an elegant, classical serif is desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and formal collateral such as invitations or programs when set with comfortable size and spacing.
The overall tone is poised and traditional, with a quiet formality that reads as literary and cultivated rather than loud or decorative. Its sharp contrasts and delicate finishing add a sense of sophistication suited to high-end editorial typography.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances classical proportions with crisp, contemporary finishing. Its shaping prioritizes readability and a polished typographic voice for editorial and literary contexts.
Curved letters (like C, G, O, Q, S) emphasize smooth, controlled arcs and fine terminals, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay clean and disciplined. The sample text shows an even color at display-to-text sizes, with fine details that benefit from adequate reproduction quality.
