A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a distinctly calligraphic stress. Curves transition quickly into thin hairlines, while verticals remain firm, producing a polished, editorial rhythm. The lowercase shows a traditional, text-oriented build with a two-storey “a,” a compact, looped “g,” and a slightly angled, elegant “e,” while capitals are stately with sharp apexes and tapered joins. Numerals appear oldstyle, with noticeable ascenders/descenders and varied widths, reinforcing a classical, book-face texture.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, journals, and magazine layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for editorial headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials such as invitations or cultural programs where contrast and sharp detailing can be showcased.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, with a quiet authority suited to literary and institutional settings. Its sharp hairlines and poised proportions convey refinement and formality without feeling ornate.
The letterforms suggest an intention to provide a conventional, literature-friendly serif with pronounced contrast and refined finishing, aiming for an authoritative yet elegant page color.
The design relies on fine hairlines and delicate terminals, so it reads especially crisp at larger sizes or in high-quality print. The italic is not shown; the samples suggest a focused, conventional roman intended for continuous reading.
