A traditional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Uppercase forms feel steady and moderately wide with clear vertical stress, while lowercase shows compact proportions and lively detailing in terminals and joins. Curves are smoothly tensioned, and the stroke endings are neatly finished, giving the face a clean, composed rhythm across words and lines. Figures match the text color well, with open counters and strong contrast that stays controlled rather than flashy.
Well suited to book interiors, editorial articles, and magazine layouts where a familiar serif voice is desired. It also performs nicely for refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal collateral such as programs or invitations, especially when set with comfortable leading and not too small.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, leaning toward book typography and established publishing conventions. It reads as confident and dignified, with a subtle elegance that suits serious content and long-form reading.
The font appears designed to provide a conventional, highly readable serif with an elevated finish—aiming for a dependable publishing workhorse that still conveys refinement and authority.
In text, the high contrast and fine hairlines create a polished texture, especially at larger sizes, while the sturdy serifs help keep lines connected. The design balances clarity with a slightly calligraphic feel in the lowercase, lending warmth without losing formality.
