This serif typeface shows strong thick–thin modulation with crisp, tapered terminals and small bracketed serifs. Proportions are relatively compact, with tall capitals and a steady, vertical rhythm that reads cleanly in text. Letterforms maintain conventional structures and open counters, while the stress and contrast give curves a lively, engraved feel. Numerals and punctuation follow the same disciplined, high-contrast language, producing sharp joins and clear silhouettes.
It suits long-form reading such as books and essays when set with comfortable size and leading, and it also performs well for magazine layouts, formal stationery, and traditional headlines where contrast and sharp finishing details are desirable.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, evoking book typography and established editorial design. Its contrast and fine detailing add a sense of refinement and authority, leaning more formal than casual.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with elevated contrast, balancing familiar proportions and readable forms with a more polished, print-classical finish for editorial and literary use.
Uppercase forms feel stately and slightly condensed, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, readable construction. The design’s thin hairlines and pointed serifs create a bright page color at larger sizes and a more delicate texture as sizes decrease.
