A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, finely tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketed and relatively sharp, with a traditional text-face construction and a steady vertical stress. Capitals are stately and moderately wide with clean, sculpted curves, while lowercase forms show compact, bookish proportions and a controlled rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrast pattern, with sturdy stems and delicate hairlines that read as distinctly display-leaning at larger sizes.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazine features, book typography, and refined long-form layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs strongly for headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials like invitations or programs, especially when set with generous size and comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, evoking traditional publishing and formal print typography. Its sharp hairlines and disciplined structure feel refined and authoritative, with a slightly dramatic, polished presence suited to premium editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, publication-oriented serif that balances traditional forms with a crisp, high-contrast finish. It aims to convey authority and elegance while maintaining familiar lettershapes for comfortable reading in formal typographic contexts.
In the sample text, the delicate hairlines and sharp serifs create a lively sparkle and strong typographic color at larger sizes. At smaller sizes or in low-resolution contexts, the contrast may demand careful rendering and sufficient size to preserve the thin strokes.
