This typeface is a high-contrast serif with a slightly calligraphic, oldstyle construction. Strokes taper and swell with a pronounced diagonal stress, and the stems often widen into subtly flared terminals that transition into bracketed serifs. Capitals are stately and moderately wide, with crisp apexes and smooth, round bowls; the uppercase Q has a distinctive sweeping tail. Lowercase forms show compact, flowing joins, a two-storey g, and narrow, elegant punctuation-like details such as the i/j dots. Numerals are lining with strong contrast and curved finials, designed to read crisply at text and display sizes.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and magazines, as well as pull quotes, headings, and refined title treatments. Its crisp contrast and distinctive caps also make it a strong choice for cultural branding, invitations, and identity work that calls for a classic serif voice.
The overall tone is traditional and cultured, with a bookish authority that feels at home in established editorial and literary contexts. Its contrast and flared finishing give it a sense of refinement and ceremony without becoming overly ornamental, balancing seriousness with warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif reading experience with added sophistication from high contrast and subtly flared finishing. It aims to provide a distinctive, premium texture in both text and display while keeping letterforms recognizable and disciplined.
The design maintains a steady rhythm in text, with clearly differentiated letterforms and a slightly dynamic texture created by the stress and tapering. Diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are sharp and clean, while rounded letters (C, O, e) keep generous internal space, helping preserve clarity in denser settings.
