A traditional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The letterforms show clear calligraphic stress with tapered joins and sharp terminals, giving a lively yet controlled texture. Capitals are sturdy and well-proportioned, while the lowercase has compact, rounded bowls and a two-storey “g” with a distinct ear. Numerals appear lining and evenly weighted, matching the text color and maintaining a consistent rhythm across sizes.
Well-suited to book typography and long-form editorial settings where a traditional, confident serif is desired. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and classic branding applications that benefit from a refined, print-oriented texture.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with a distinctly literary, editorial feel. Its sharp serifs and high-contrast strokes convey refinement and seriousness without becoming overly ornamental.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a strong classical backbone—prioritizing clear proportions, a steady reading rhythm, and an elevated, editorial presence that scales comfortably from text to display sizes.
In the sample text, the face maintains strong word-shape clarity and a firm baseline, producing a dense, confident page color. Round letters (like O/C/e) stay smooth and controlled, while diagonals (V/W/X) are crisp and energetic, adding snap to headings.
