A crisp serif with pronounced stroke contrast and sharply cut, bracketed serifs. The capitals feel stately and evenly proportioned, with narrow joins and clean, tapered terminals that keep counters open. Lowercase forms show a traditional text rhythm: a two-storey “a,” a compact, looped “g,” and clear ascenders with wedge-like finishing. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with elegant curves and tapered entries, producing a polished, bookish texture in paragraphs.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also performs effectively for display-sized settings such as section heads, pull quotes, and refined headlines that benefit from its high-contrast detailing.
The overall tone is classical and editorial, projecting authority and refinement without appearing ornamental. Its sharp serifs and disciplined contrast give it a formal voice suited to established, print-minded aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, print-forward serif voice with clear letterforms and an elevated, classic feel. It balances readability with a more formal, high-contrast elegance for both text and headline use.
In text, the strong thick–thin transitions create a lively sparkle and a distinctly traditional page color. The design favors verticality and crisp detail, with terminals and serifs that read as carefully chiseled rather than soft or rounded.
