This typeface is a narrow serif with gently flared stroke endings and subtle bracketing that softens joins into the serifs. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation, with tapered terminals and small wedge-like finishing on many letters, creating a slightly calligraphic feel without becoming script-like. Curves are smooth and open, counters are relatively generous for the width, and the overall rhythm is crisp and orderly, with clear differentiation between forms in both upper- and lowercase and evenly weighted numerals.
It works well for editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine layouts where a classic serif texture is needed but space is at a premium. The condensed proportions also suit headlines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a refined, traditional voice.
The tone is classic and literary, suggesting a traditional bookish voice with a refined, editorial polish. The flared details add a hint of warmth and craft, keeping the impression formal but not rigid.
The design appears intended to provide a compact, highly legible serif with a timeless feel, using flared endings and moderated contrast to balance elegance with practicality in continuous reading and display settings.
Capitals feel stately and compact, while lowercase maintains a steady, readable texture with modest extenders. Numerals appear lining and proportionally consistent with the text, suitable for mixed text-and-figure settings where a quiet, traditional character is desired.
