A high‑contrast serif with crisp, pointed serifs and sharply tapered terminals. Curves are smoothly modeled with a pronounced thick–thin rhythm, while verticals stay firm and upright. Capitals feel stately with wide, open bowls and clean joins, and the lowercase combines a traditional two‑storey a and g with compact, neatly bracketed serifs. Numerals follow the same engraved logic, with elegant proportions and strong hairlines.
Well suited to editorial layouts, longform reading, and book typography where a classic serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding applications that benefit from high contrast and sharp detailing.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, evoking traditional book typography and formal publishing. Its sharp finishing and bright hairlines lend a polished, slightly dramatic presence that reads as authoritative and timeless.
The design appears intended as a conventional, publication‑oriented serif that balances familiar letterforms with a more incisive, high‑contrast finish. It aims to deliver a cultured, authoritative texture in paragraphs while retaining enough sparkle for prominent display settings.
Across the alphabet the design maintains consistent contrast and a clear baseline rhythm, giving text a tidy, composed color. The sharper serif shapes and tapered strokes can appear particularly crisp at display sizes, while the traditional forms remain familiar in continuous reading.
