This serif typeface features crisp, bracketed serifs and a pronounced thick–thin modulation that gives strokes a refined, engraved feel. Letterforms are relatively narrow with compact sidebearings, producing a steady, economical rhythm in text. Capitals are stately and slightly condensed, with tapered terminals and sharp joins that read cleanly at display sizes. The lowercase shows traditional proportions with a moderate x-height, sturdy verticals, and small apertures that keep the texture even and controlled. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with slender hairlines and firm main strokes.
Well-suited to book interiors, long-form editorial typography, and other text-forward layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. The refined contrast and narrow rhythm also make it effective for formal announcements, invitations, and headlines that need a traditional, authoritative presence without heavy weight.
The overall tone is traditional and cultured, suggesting established publishing, academia, and formal communication. Its contrast and sharp finishing add a sense of elegance and seriousness, while the restrained proportions keep the voice disciplined rather than ornate.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable serif with elevated contrast and precise detailing—aimed at producing a polished, literary texture in continuous reading while still offering a dignified look for titles and formal settings.
Diagonal strokes (notably in V/W/X and the y) appear finely tapered, reinforcing the calligraphic contrast and giving the font a slightly dressier texture. Round letters maintain a smooth, symmetrical stress, and the serif treatment stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures for a cohesive page color.
