A classic serif with sharply tapered, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems are crisp and upright, with smooth, slightly calligraphic transitions into hairlines that stay clean at text sizes. Capitals are stately and proportioned for headings, while the lowercase maintains steady rhythm with compact joins, open counters, and a controlled, book-oriented texture. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing sturdy verticals with delicate curves for an elegant, composed overall color.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial layouts where a refined serif texture is desired, and it also scales effectively for magazine headlines and section openers. Its formal voice makes it appropriate for invitations, cultural branding, and institutional materials that benefit from a traditional typographic register.
The tone is polished and traditional, reading as authoritative and literary rather than playful. Its high-contrast detailing and formal proportions convey refinement and a sense of heritage typical of editorial typography.
The design intent appears to be a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances elegance with practical readability. It emphasizes classic proportions, crisp detailing, and a composed page color for editorial and literary settings.
The italic is not shown; all samples appear roman and upright. The sample text demonstrates strong headline presence while retaining a disciplined, readable flow in continuous setting, with clear punctuation and a classic serif cadence.
