This serif shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp, bracketed serifs and a generally vertical stress. Capitals are stately and open, with generous internal counters (notably in C, G, O, and Q) and cleanly tapered terminals. Lowercase forms are compact and disciplined, with a two-storey a and g, a relatively small aperture on e, and an elegant, slightly calligraphic flow in curves and joins. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing strong vertical stems with fine hairlines for a sharp, print-oriented texture.
Well suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine design where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also performs well for headlines, pull quotes, and formal collateral such as invitations or announcements, especially when set with comfortable spacing to let the contrast and serifs breathe.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, projecting seriousness and literary polish. High contrast and crisp serifs lend a formal, authoritative voice suited to traditional publishing aesthetics rather than casual or playful settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, print-centric serif with a refined, high-contrast build—aiming for clarity, tradition, and a polished editorial presence across both display and text settings.
In text, the rhythm is driven by strong verticals and fine connecting hairlines, producing a distinctly crisp color that can feel luxurious at larger sizes. Pointed diagonals (V, W, X) and carefully shaped bowls contribute to a refined, controlled silhouette across the set.
