A high-contrast serif with tapered stems, sharp hairlines, and distinctly bracketed serifs that give strokes a carved, calligraphic transition. Capitals feel stately and open, with moderate proportions and clean, slightly flared terminals; the round letters show a smooth, controlled modulation and a gently oval stress. Lowercase forms are lively and readable, pairing compact bowls with crisp entry/exit strokes; the two-storey a and g and the sharp, triangular serifs on ascenders contribute to a traditional book-face rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrast and serif treatment, with clear, oldstyle-like curvature and confident verticals that hold up in running text.
Well suited for long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture and clear letterforms are desired. It can also support formal documents and institutional communication, and works effectively for headings when set with generous spacing to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, evoking printed literature and traditional publishing. Its contrast and fine detailing lend a refined, slightly formal voice that feels at home in curated, text-forward design.
Likely intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that delivers a familiar, literary reading experience while adding refinement through crisp hairlines, bracketed serifs, and controlled calligraphic modulation.
The texture in paragraph settings appears even and steady, with clear word shapes and strong vertical emphasis balanced by delicate horizontals. The design reads as polished rather than ornamental, relying on stroke modulation and serif shaping for character.
