A high-contrast serif with slender hairlines, tapered joins, and finely bracketed serifs that stay crisp rather than heavy. The capitals are stately and slightly narrow in feeling, with controlled modulation and smooth, continuous curves (notably in C, G, and O) and a graceful, sweeping Q tail. Lowercase forms show an oldstyle-leaning rhythm with a two-storey a, open apertures, a looping g, and a gently flowing italic-like construction in the ear and terminals, while numerals combine thin horizontals with pronounced vertical stress and ball/teardrop finishing on select figures. Overall spacing and proportions read even and text-friendly, with a polished, bookish texture at paragraph sizes.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, long-form reading, and magazine typography where a classic serif texture and strong vertical rhythm are desired. It also performs convincingly in display roles—chapter titles, pull quotes, and formal announcements—where the sharp contrast and elegant terminals can be appreciated at larger sizes.
The tone is refined and literary, evoking classic publishing and cultured print traditions. Its sharp contrast and poised detailing add a sense of sophistication and ceremony without becoming overly ornate, lending an upscale, editorial voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, print-classic reading experience with elevated refinement, pairing a dignified uppercase with a lively, oldstyle-spirited lowercase and carefully finished terminals for a premium editorial feel.
Terminals frequently resolve into small wedges or subtle ball shapes, giving strokes a calligraphic finish and helping curves feel lively. The design maintains a consistent vertical stress and a measured baseline presence, balancing graceful capitals with a more text-oriented lowercase.
