A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed details and subtly flared terminals that broaden as strokes meet the endings. The letterforms show a balanced, traditional skeleton with steady verticals, tapered joins, and smoothly modulated curves, producing a clear thick–thin rhythm. Counters are open and well-shaped, with a slightly generous stance in capitals and a controlled, readable lowercase that keeps forms distinct across text. Numerals follow the same sharp contrast and serif treatment, with elegant curves and sturdy vertical stress.
Well-suited to editorial typography where a refined serif voice is desired—magazine features, book covers, and cultured branding. It can carry headlines and pull quotes with elegance, and it also performs for body copy in comfortable reading sizes where its classic proportions and open counters support long-form text.
The overall tone feels classic and editorial, combining formality with a quiet literary warmth. Its sharp contrast and poised serifs suggest tradition and authority, while the slight flare in terminals adds a crafted, calligraphic refinement rather than a strictly mechanical finish.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif reading experience with heightened contrast and polished finishing, using flared endings and bracketed serifs to create a crafted, upscale texture. It aims for clarity and authority while preserving an expressive, print-oriented elegance.
In text, the font maintains a consistent dark–light pattern with pronounced hairlines that add sparkle at larger sizes. The capitals read as stately and composed, while the lowercase offers familiar book-type shapes with a clean, disciplined rhythm and clear word silhouettes.
