A sturdy serif with pronounced stroke modulation and bracketed serifs that flow smoothly into the stems. Curves are full and slightly teardrop-like at joins, giving counters a rounded, warm interior, while verticals remain firm and dark on the page. Terminals tend toward gently cupped or ball-like finishes in places, and the overall drawing favors classical proportions with a steady, even rhythm across text. Numerals and capitals read solid and conventional, with a slightly sculpted, ink-trap-free silhouette that feels optimized for printing rather than geometric rigidity.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and other reading-focused settings where a traditional serif voice is desired. The weight and contrast also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and formal branding where a confident, classic tone is beneficial.
The tone is traditional and authoritative, with a bookish confidence that suggests established institutions and long-form reading. Its strong presence and classic detailing lean formal and editorial rather than casual or playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, readable serif with a strong, classical voice and enough contrast to provide elegance while maintaining a robust, dark text color. It balances tradition and practicality, aiming for dependable performance in publishing and editorial contexts.
In running text the letterspacing appears comfortable and the texture is dense but controlled, producing a clear paragraph color at larger sizes. The combination of strong contrast and rounded serif transitions lends a subtly calligraphic flavor without tipping into decorative styling.
