A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered, bracketed serifs and a lively, calligraphy-informed modulation. Capitals show elegant, slightly flared terminals and confident curves, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with compact joins and clear counters. The italic is not shown; all forms appear upright with a polished, book-face texture. Numerals are proportional and similarly high-contrast, with traditional shapes and crisp serifs that keep the color consistent in text.
Well suited to book and magazine typography, essays, and other long-form reading where a classic serif texture is desired. It also performs effectively for refined headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or heritage branding that benefits from a traditional, authoritative voice.
The overall tone is classical and literary, combining formality with a warm, human touch. Its crisp contrast and sculpted serifs suggest tradition and editorial authority, while the organic stroke endings keep it approachable rather than austere.
Designed to evoke a dependable old-style reading experience with high-contrast elegance, pairing strong editorial clarity with subtle calligraphic warmth. The intent appears to be a versatile serif that can move comfortably between text and display while retaining a classic, curated character.
Curves and diagonals have a subtly calligraphic tension, giving words a gently animated texture at display sizes. The spacing appears balanced for continuous reading, and the distinctive wedge-like serif endings help maintain clarity in mixed-case settings.
