A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, high stroke-contrast, and a steady, upright rhythm. The capitals are stately and relatively narrow with sharp, triangular terminals and crisp joins, while the lowercase shows oldstyle influence through two-storey a and g, a modest x-height, and gently tapered strokes. Curves are clean and slightly calligraphic, with clear entry/exit strokes on letters like a, c, e, and r, and compact, well-defined counters that hold up in text settings.
Well suited to continuous reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It also fits formal documents, academic material, and refined branding that benefits from traditional, high-contrast letterforms.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, leaning toward literary and editorial typography rather than display eccentricity. Its sharp serifs and controlled contrast feel formal and established, with a quiet elegance suited to serious content.
The design appears intended as a familiar, time-tested text serif: refined enough for publication typography, with clear forms, balanced proportions, and traditional details that prioritize readability and a classic page color.
The numerals follow the same crisp, high-contrast construction and read clearly alongside text. The lowercase has a slightly lively texture due to tapered terminals and subtle stroke modulation, giving paragraphs a classic, bookish color rather than a neutral sans-like evenness.
