A high-contrast serif with clear vertical stress and crisp, bracketed serifs. Stems are firm and upright while hairlines pull thin into sharp, tapered terminals, creating a bright, rhythmic texture in paragraphs. Capitals are stately with pointed apexes and decisive arm endings, and the lowercase shows compact, traditional proportions with sturdy bowls and clear joins. Numerals follow the same contrasty, old-style-influenced drawing, with pronounced thick–thin transitions and refined curves.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also performs strongly for headlines, pull quotes, and refined titling—especially in contexts that benefit from a formal, classic tone such as programs, invitations, and cultural branding.
The overall tone is classic and cultured, with a strong editorial voice. Its sharp finishing details and high contrast read as formal and authoritative, leaning toward bookish sophistication rather than casual friendliness.
The design appears aimed at a conventional, highly legible serif voice with elevated contrast and refined terminals, balancing classic book typography cues with a crisp, modern finish for editorial versatility.
In larger sizes the fine hairlines and crisp terminals become a defining feature, giving headlines a polished, engraved-like presence. In text settings the contrast and compact shaping create a confident, traditional color that suits conventional reading rhythms.
