A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The capitals are stately and open, with flared, hairline finishing strokes and clean, vertical stress in rounds. Lowercase forms show traditional text-serif construction with compact joins, a two-storey "g" and "a", and sturdy vertical stems balanced by fine hairlines; spacing reads even and text-ready. Numerals appear oldstyle, with varied heights and extenders that blend naturally with lowercase rhythm.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desirable. It also works for headlines, pull quotes, and section titles that benefit from a formal, established tone, especially in print-like compositions.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, projecting an established, editorial voice. Its sharp contrast and refined serifs lend a sense of formality and credibility, suitable for contexts that want a classic, print-oriented feel.
The font appears intended as a conventional text serif that delivers a familiar, authoritative reading experience while adding refinement through strong contrast and carefully shaped serifs. The inclusion of oldstyle numerals suggests an emphasis on harmonious typography in continuous text and classical editorial settings.
The design mixes delicate hairlines with robust main strokes, creating a lively texture in paragraphs while keeping letterforms clear at display sizes. Terminals are generally sharp and controlled rather than calligraphically soft, contributing to a composed, conventional impression.
