A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. The design leans wide with generous horizontal proportions and open internal spaces, producing a calm, stately rhythm in text. Serifs are sharp and lightly bracketed, and many joins and terminals show subtle flare and taper that echo calligraphic stress. Curves are smoothly sculpted, with thin connecting strokes and decisive verticals that create a strong contrast-driven texture.
Well-suited to magazines, long-form editorial settings, and book typography where a refined serif voice is desired. Its contrast and width also make it effective for display applications such as headlines, pull quotes, cultural branding, and formal stationery, especially when ample size and spacing can preserve the delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and literary, pairing classical formality with a slightly dramatic, display-ready presence. Its high-contrast detailing and wide stance read as upscale and authoritative, evoking editorial and bookish contexts rather than casual or utilitarian ones.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif reading experience with heightened elegance through strong contrast and generous proportions. It aims to balance text-legible structure with display-level sophistication, providing an upscale, editorial character across both uppercase and lowercase.
Uppercase forms feel monumental and spacious, while the lowercase maintains a steady x-height with elegant ascenders and descenders that add vertical liveliness. Numerals follow the same contrasty, tapered logic, giving figures a refined, old-world sensibility and making them feel integrated with the text color.
