A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, neatly bracketed serifs that often flare slightly at terminals. Curves are smooth and well-controlled, with open counters and a measured, even rhythm in text. Uppercase forms feel stately and balanced, while the lowercase shows traditional proportions, compact joins, and clear, slightly tapered stroke endings that keep the texture crisp. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and slender hairlines.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine text where a classic serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for invitations, programs, and refined branding elements, especially in larger sizes where the fine hairlines and flared terminals can be appreciated.
The overall tone is formal and literary, conveying tradition, polish, and a quiet sense of authority. Its crisp contrast and controlled detailing read as editorial and cultured rather than casual or playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic reading experience with elevated refinement: high-contrast strokes, traditional serif construction, and carefully tapered endings that lend elegance without sacrificing clarity in continuous text.
Diagonal strokes (as in K, V, W, X) are thin and sharp, giving the face a precise, engraved feel at display sizes. Round letters (O, Q, o, e) maintain a consistent oval stress, supporting a steady, bookish color across lines of text.
