This serif typeface shows crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation that gives strokes a chiseled, engraved feel. Uppercase forms are stately and fairly narrow with clear vertical stress, while lowercase is compact with sturdy stems and rounded bowls. Terminals are generally sharp and tapered rather than blunt, with a slightly calligraphic liveliness in joins and curves. Figures align comfortably with the text, with oldstyle-like movement in the 6/8/9 and a relatively compact, readable overall rhythm in paragraph settings.
Well-suited to book interiors, editorial layouts, and magazine typography where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also serve effectively for chapter titles, pull quotes, and formal headlines thanks to its sharp serifs and strong contrast.
The overall tone is classic and literary, leaning formal and traditional without feeling overly ornate. Its high-contrast rhythm and crisp finishing cues suggest editorial seriousness and a refined, bookish voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that balances readability with a refined, high-contrast finish. Its proportions and detailing aim to evoke established print typography, offering a dependable, classical voice for reading-heavy content.
In text, the spacing reads even and composed, with distinct letterforms that maintain clarity at display sizes. The character set shown emphasizes conventional proportions and familiar serif cues, making it feel at home in long-form typography while still providing a confident headline presence.
