This is a high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a refined, bookish construction. Stems are sturdy while hairlines and connecting strokes taper sharply, giving letters a chiseled, glossy rhythm. Curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic, with pointed terminals in places (notably in diagonals and the numerals), and the overall spacing reads balanced for paragraph setting. The lowercase shows traditional proportions with clear ascenders/descenders and a two-storey "g", while capitals are tall and stately with pronounced stroke modulation.
It suits long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired, and it scales well into headlines and pull quotes thanks to its crisp contrast and sculpted details. It will look especially at home in magazines, essays, and formal communications where a refined typographic texture is important.
The tone is classic and editorial, leaning formal and authoritative. It evokes traditional publishing and institutional typography—polished, composed, and slightly dramatic due to the strong contrast and sharp detailing.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with an elevated, high-contrast finish—aiming for readability at paragraph sizes while offering a more dramatic, premium feel for titles and emphasis.
The italic is not shown; all samples appear upright. Numerals share the same contrast and sharp, wedge-like finishing, visually aligning with the capitals for display use while still feeling compatible with text composition.
