A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketted and neatly cut, giving a polished, print-like texture without feeling heavy. Curves are smooth and controlled, while joins and shoulders stay clean, producing an even rhythm in both capitals and lowercase. Numerals align with the same high-contrast logic, with open counters and clear, traditional silhouettes.
It performs well for long-form reading such as books and essays, where the classic serif structure and disciplined rhythm help guide the eye. The crisp contrast also makes it effective for magazine typography, pull quotes, and refined headlines, and it can lend a formal, traditional tone to stationery and invitations.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, suggesting bookish authority and quiet elegance rather than overt ornament. Its high-contrast strokes and refined finishing cues read as premium and formal, suited to editorial voices and heritage-minded branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, high-contrast serif voice that feels at home in print-oriented typography. It prioritizes clarity and polish through controlled proportions, bracketted serifs, and a restrained, classic construction suited to editorial and literary settings.
In text, the face maintains a steady baseline and consistent spacing that supports continuous reading, while the contrast and crisp serifs add sparkle at display sizes. The italic is not shown; all samples present a straight, upright roman style.
