A crisp, high-contrast serif with bracketed, wedge-like terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic, while verticals stay firm and upright, producing a composed rhythm. Capitals are stately with generous internal space and sharp apexes (notably in A, V, W), and the lowercase shows a balanced, readable structure with compact joins, rounded bowls, and a two-storey a and g. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, with elegant curves and tapered finishing strokes.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where high contrast and crisp serifs can shine at comfortable text sizes. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and refined brand systems that want a classic, established voice.
The tone is traditional and cultivated, with an editorial polish that reads as confident and authoritative. Its sharp, tapered serifs add a touch of ceremony and sophistication without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes clarity and tradition while adding refinement through contrast and tapered, bracketed serifs. Its measured proportions and consistent rhythm suggest a focus on comfortable reading and editorial versatility.
Overall spacing feels even and text-focused, with clear counters and a steady baseline presence. The italic is not shown; the roman forms carry the personality through contrast, bracketing, and subtly calligraphic shaping rather than eccentric details.
