A refined serif with pronounced stroke modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and round (notably in C, O, and Q), while verticals remain steady and tapered into fine hairlines at terminals and serifs. Proportions feel balanced and text-forward, with open counters and a measured rhythm that stays even across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. Numerals are slender and sharply drawn, matching the font’s delicate, high-finish detailing.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where contrast and classic serif construction support an authoritative, literary feel. It also performs nicely for magazine headlines, section openers, and formal stationery where a polished, traditional voice is appropriate.
The overall tone is cultured and traditional, with an editorial polish that reads as quiet luxury rather than display exuberance. Its contrast and fine finishing convey formality and restraint, suitable for contexts where credibility and sophistication are desired.
Designed to deliver a conventional, text-oriented serif voice with elevated finishing: strong vertical structure, carefully bracketed serifs, and graceful modulation that adds sophistication without becoming ornamental. The intent appears to prioritize readability and typographic dignity while maintaining a crisp, premium texture on the page.
The lowercase shows classic text-serif behavior with a two-storey a and g and small, neatly formed joins, while diagonals (V, W, X) sharpen to fine points that emphasize the font’s precision. The ampersand is decorative but controlled, aligning with the typeface’s refined character.
