A refined serif with crisp, high-contrast strokes and bracketed serifs that read cleanly at text sizes. The capitals are stately and well-proportioned, with sharp apexes and smooth curves, while the lowercase maintains an even rhythm and open counters. Serifs are tapered rather than blocky, and terminals feel decisive, giving the design a polished, conventional texture suited to continuous reading. Numerals align with the same formal tone, with clear curves and consistent stroke contrast.
Works well for long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desirable. It also suits reports, academic or institutional documents, and magazine typography that benefits from a refined, formal voice.
The overall tone is classic and literary, projecting a composed, editorial seriousness. Its sharp contrast and tidy finishing details add a quiet elegance that feels traditional rather than decorative.
Likely designed to provide a dependable, conventional text serif with a touch of elegance—balancing strong readability with high-contrast sophistication for print-like editorial use.
Spacing appears measured and stable, producing a calm line of text in the sample. The italic is not shown; the visible style emphasizes straightforward readability with a slightly dressy, print-oriented finish.
