A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and finely bracketed serifs that taper to sharp terminals. Capitals are stately and open, with smooth curves and controlled joins; the overall color stays light on the page while maintaining clear structure. Lowercase shows a traditional text rhythm with two-storey a and g, compact apertures, and small, rounded ball terminals in places, giving a polished, bookish texture in paragraphs. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and feel slightly old-style in their movement, with elegant curves and restrained endings.
It suits long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a refined serif texture is desired. It also works well for chapter openings, pull quotes, and elegant titling where its delicate contrast and sharp serifs can read as premium and traditional.
The tone is poised and literary, leaning toward classic editorial sophistication rather than rustic or casual warmth. Its high-contrast detailing and neat finishing convey formality and restraint, suggesting established, cultured contexts like publishing and academia.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable text serif with a more polished, high-contrast finish for sophisticated print and editorial typography. It prioritizes a classic reading rhythm while adding finesse through tapered serifs and carefully shaped terminals.
Stroke transitions are smooth and slightly calligraphic, with gentle entry/exit curves that keep the design from feeling mechanical. Spacing appears balanced for continuous reading, producing an even, calm line without heavy density.
