A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed wedges and strongly tapered terminals that give the strokes a subtly calligraphic rhythm. The capitals are stately and evenly proportioned, while the lowercase shows moderate width variation and lively curves, especially in the bowls and shoulders. Serifs are sharp and neatly integrated, with pointed entry/exit strokes on several letters and a gently sculpted texture that reads cleanly at display sizes. Numerals follow the same contrast and serif treatment, with open counters and decisive, angled finishing strokes.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, section openers, pull quotes, and book or chapter titles where contrast and crisp serifs can be appreciated. It can also support refined branding and printed collateral like invitations or programs, particularly when paired with ample spacing and clean layout structure.
The overall tone is classic and literary, evoking traditional book typography with a slightly dramatic, refined edge. It feels formal and composed, with enough personality in the terminals and curvature to suit elegant editorial settings rather than purely utilitarian text.
Likely intended as a contemporary take on a traditional text serif: preserving classical proportions and readability cues while emphasizing sharp, tapered terminals and pronounced contrast for a more elegant, display-friendly presence.
The design maintains a consistent contrast pattern across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, producing a bright page color with clear stroke hierarchy. Distinctive wedge-like terminals and pointed serifs contribute to a slightly sharpened, engraved impression in headings and short passages.
