A conventional serif with pronounced stroke contrast and crisp, bracketed serifs. The capitals are stately and fairly wide, with generous bowls (C, G, O, Q) and tapered joins that keep counters open. Lowercase forms show a traditional two-storey a and g, a narrow, upright stance, and clear differentiation between stems and hairlines; the ear on g and the angled terminals on letters like a, c, and f add a subtly calligraphic finish. Numerals follow an oldstyle tendency with varied heights and forms that harmonize with the text rhythm rather than sitting uniformly on the baseline.
Well-suited for book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine settings where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also performs convincingly in headlines and subheads, giving titles a formal, established character.
The overall tone is classic and composed, projecting an editorial seriousness associated with books, newspapers, and institutional communications. High contrast and sharp finishing details add a sense of refinement and authority without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text serif that balances readability with a polished, high-contrast finish. Its proportions and classic letterforms aim to evoke established print typography while remaining versatile across text and display sizes.
In text, the strong contrast and defined serifs create a lively horizontal rhythm, while the relatively open counters help maintain clarity at larger text sizes and in display settings. The italic is not shown, and the sample emphasizes upright roman forms with prominent headline-like presence.
