This serif features crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced stroke contrast, with sturdy vertical stems and finer hairlines that stay clean and controlled. Capitals are stately and fairly wide, with sharp apexes on forms like A and V and a generous, rounded C. Lowercase shows a traditional text rhythm with clear joins, open counters, and a two-storey a; the g is double-storey with a compact ear. Numerals are lining and proportionally varied, with classic curves and a clear distinction between 6/9 and 0.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It also works effectively for headings, pull quotes, and formal collateral such as programs or invitations where a traditional, credible voice helps set the tone.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, leaning toward bookish authority rather than display eccentricity. Its contrast and serif detailing give it a polished, editorial feel suited to serious or institutional messaging.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances readability with a refined, traditional personality. It prioritizes familiar letterforms and consistent rhythm to deliver a dependable typographic voice across body text and display settings.
Curves terminate with subtly tapered ends and occasional ball-like terminals, adding a refined, slightly calligraphic finish without becoming ornamental. The family’s spacing appears comfortable in text, supporting an even grey value and clear word shapes at reading sizes.
