A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairlines. The serifs are bracketed and relatively delicate, with tapered, knife-like finishing on several joins and terminals. Proportions favor a compact lowercase with a short x-height, contrasted by tall ascenders and a clear hierarchy between capitals and lowercase. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are open, and the overall color stays even despite the high contrast, giving text a polished, editorial rhythm.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine text where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for literary headlines, pull quotes, and formal printed materials that benefit from a refined, high-contrast presence.
The tone is classic and cultivated, projecting an educated, literary feel rather than a rustic or experimental one. Its sharp detailing and poised contrast read as formal and authoritative, with a quiet sense of sophistication suited to traditional typographic settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with an emphasis on elegance and typographic tradition. It prioritizes a disciplined rhythm and classic proportions, delivering a familiar, trustworthy reading experience with a touch of sharp, modern refinement in the detailing.
Several glyphs show slightly calligraphic shaping in the way strokes swell into stems and taper into terminals, which adds finesse without becoming decorative. Figures appear lining and fairly classical in construction, complementing the uppercase without calling excessive attention in running text.
