A conventional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a pronounced thick–thin stroke modulation. Curves show a clear calligraphic stress and relatively tight apertures, while joins and terminals stay clean and sharp rather than rounded. Uppercase forms are stately and well-proportioned with strong verticals; the lowercase keeps a straightforward book-face rhythm, with a double-storey “g,” a compact “a,” and restrained extenders. Numerals appear lining and clear, matching the text color and contrast of the letters.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also support magazine headlines, pull quotes, and formal brand typography when you want a refined, traditional voice and strong typographic hierarchy.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, projecting polish and authority without feeling ornamental. Its high-contrast refinement suggests editorial seriousness and a sense of heritage, making the voice feel composed and trustworthy.
The font appears intended as a dependable, conventional text serif that prioritizes familiar proportions, clear letterforms, and a polished high-contrast finish. Its design choices aim to deliver a classic reading experience with enough sharpness to feel crisp in modern page and screen composition.
Spacing reads even in paragraph settings, with a consistent text color that stays crisp at larger sizes. The design leans toward a transitional feel: controlled modulation, tidy serifs, and a balanced mix of sharpness and restraint that keeps it legible while still looking formal.
