A high-contrast serif with bracketed serifs, tapered stems, and a smooth, calligraphic modulation that reads as traditional rather than geometric. The capitals are sturdy and evenly proportioned with slightly flared joins and crisp, well-defined serifs; rounds (C, O) show a clear thick–thin rhythm and moderate diagonal stress. Lowercase forms are compact and readable, with open apertures (notably in e and c) and a two-storey a paired with a single-storey g, giving the texture a familiar book-face cadence. Numerals appear oldstyle with varied heights and pronounced contrast, contributing to a lively baseline rhythm in text.
Well-suited to book typography and long-form editorial work where a traditional serif texture is desired, and it also performs nicely for magazine headings and pull quotes at larger sizes. The refined contrast and oldstyle numerals can lend credibility and heritage to identity work, packaging, or institutional materials.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, with a composed, traditional authority. Its contrast and refined detailing suggest an editorial voice—confident and formal without feeling overly ornate.
Designed to deliver a conventional, highly legible text serif with a slightly calligraphic feel, combining crisp contrast and bracketed serifs for a classic reading experience. The inclusion of oldstyle figures and familiar lowercase structures points to an intent focused on literature, editorial voice, and typographic tradition.
In the sample paragraph, the font maintains a steady gray value at larger sizes while preserving crisp hairlines and clear inner spaces. The mix of robust verticals and delicate horizontals adds elegance, and the oldstyle numerals reinforce a historic, literary character.
