A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a largely vertical axis. Serifs are bracketed and often flare subtly out of the stems, with sharp, tapered terminals on letters like C, G, S, and T. The capitals feel sturdy and stately with wide bowls and clean junctions, while the lowercase shows traditional proportions and a moderate x-height; ascenders are tall and the overall rhythm is slightly compact. Numerals follow the same high-contrast model, mixing straight stems with rounded forms and refined finishing details.
Well-suited to headlines, pull quotes, and titling where the high contrast and flared finishing can be appreciated. It can also work for short-form editorial text and formal materials—such as invitations, certificates, and brand wordmarks—when set at sizes that preserve its fine hairlines.
The overall tone is authoritative and traditional, with a bookish, editorial feel. Its sharp finishing and strong contrast lend it a serious, refined voice suited to established institutions and classic publishing aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened contrast and subtly flared, bracketed serifs—balancing traditional book typography cues with a sharper, more dramatic finish for display and editorial emphasis.
Curves resolve into pointed or wedge-like ends rather than blunt cuts, giving many glyphs a subtly calligraphic snap. The darker vertical strokes and tighter internal spaces create a confident texture that reads best when given comfortable tracking and line spacing, especially in dense settings.
