A high-contrast serif with slender hairlines, firmer verticals, and finely bracketed serifs that taper to sharp terminals. The letterforms are upright with a measured, traditional proportion set: capitals feel stately and open, while the lowercase shows a compact, readable rhythm with clear counters and modest stroke modulation. Curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic, with crisp joins and delicate detailing that stays consistent across letters and figures.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also fits formal collateral—programs, invitations, and brand stationery—especially at moderate sizes where the fine serifs and contrast can be appreciated.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, evoking traditional book typography and editorial authority. Its refined contrast and sharp finishing give it a formal, premium feel suited to serious or elegant messaging.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable text serif with a distinctly refined, high-contrast finish. Its balanced proportions and consistent modulation suggest a focus on comfortable text setting while retaining an elegant, classical character for display use in headlines and pull quotes.
Spacing reads even and composed in text, with a calm baseline and steady color despite the delicate hairlines. Numerals appear oldstyle in character, blending naturally with lowercase proportions rather than standing as rigid, tabular forms.
