A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and bracketed wedge-like terminals. The letterforms are upright with steady, book-oriented proportions and a controlled, slightly calligraphic stroke flow. Capitals feel stately and open, with generous counters and clean joins, while the lowercase maintains an even rhythm and a readable, traditional construction. Numerals and punctuation match the same high-contrast logic, with compact curves and firm horizontal serifs.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, where its contrast and traditional proportions support comfortable text setting. It also works effectively for section heads, pull quotes, and refined headlines that benefit from a classical serif presence.
The overall tone is classic and literary, projecting authority and a traditional print sensibility. Its sharp serifs and refined contrast lend a formal, editorial voice that reads as established and trustworthy rather than casual or playful.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that balances strong contrast with steady readability. Its detailing suggests a focus on timeless, print-forward typography that can serve both running text and tasteful display roles without calling excessive attention to itself.
Curved letters show smooth, continuous transitions into the serifs, and verticals carry most of the visual weight, giving text a clear columnar structure. The design maintains consistent detailing across caps, lowercase, and figures, supporting a cohesive page color at text sizes while still feeling crisp at display sizes.
