This serif shows a high-contrast build with thin hairlines and fuller verticals, paired with sharply finished, lightly bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and controlled, with a slightly calligraphic stress that reads as traditional rather than geometric. Proportions lean elegant and text-oriented: capitals are stately with open counters, and the lowercase keeps a modest x-height with clear ascenders and descenders for a measured rhythm. Details such as the angled terminals, tapered joins, and the flowing tail on Q contribute to a polished, bookish texture.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It also performs convincingly in display roles—chapter titles, magazine headlines, pull quotes, and formal stationery—where its sharp hairlines and elegant contrast can be showcased.
The overall tone is refined and composed, evoking classic print typography and an editorial sensibility. It feels formal without being ornate, communicating authority and a quiet sophistication suited to literary or institutional contexts.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif with a classic, print-rooted voice—prioritizing clarity and a composed reading rhythm while offering enough sharp detail for elevated display typography.
Numerals appear lining and consistent with the text color, with graceful curves and clean, traditional forms. At larger sizes the fine hairlines and tapered terminals become a key visual feature, giving the design a crisp, delicate finish.
