A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and fuller main strokes, showing a distinctly calligraphic modulation. Serifs are bracketed and neatly tapered, with sharp, triangular finishing details on many terminals. Uppercase forms feel stately and wide-set, while the lowercase maintains a steady text rhythm with clear counters and a slightly sculpted, oldstyle-leaning color. Numerals follow the same engraved contrast and flare, producing an elegant but assertive texture in continuous text.
Well suited for book and long-form editorial typography where a classic serif voice is desired, and it also shines in headlines and subheads that benefit from contrast and refinement. It can be effective for formal invitations, cultural branding, and premium packaging where a traditional, elevated tone is appropriate.
The overall tone is refined and traditional, evoking book typography and engraved, heritage-led design. Its sharp transitions and elegant hairlines project sophistication and a slightly dramatic, high-end editorial character.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, literature-friendly serif voice with heightened elegance through strong contrast and carefully finished serifs. It prioritizes a composed reading rhythm while offering enough sharpness and drama to stand out in display use.
The font’s contrast creates pronounced sparkle at larger sizes, while the thin joins and hairlines become a defining visual feature in denser settings. Curved letters show controlled, smooth stress and consistent stroke endings, giving the face a polished, crafted feel.
