A conventional serif with pronounced stroke contrast, sharp triangular terminals, and bracketed serifs that taper into the stems. Curves are smoothly drawn with a slightly calligraphic modulation, while verticals remain dominant for a steady, upright rhythm. Uppercase forms feel stately and compact, with clear, flat crossbars and pointed apexes; lowercase shows sturdy bowls, a two-storey “g,” and compact counters that keep texture even in paragraph settings. Numerals and punctuation follow the same crisp, sculpted logic, reinforcing a cohesive, traditional text color.
Well suited to book typography, long-form editorial pages, and magazine layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also works effectively for headings, pull quotes, and formal display lines that benefit from crisp contrast and dignified letterforms.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with an editorial seriousness that suggests print tradition and careful typesetting. Its crisp serifs and high-contrast modeling add a refined, slightly formal voice suited to established, literary contexts.
The design appears intended as a conventional, print-oriented serif that balances readability with a refined, high-contrast elegance. Its details and proportions aim to evoke classic publishing while remaining versatile across text and headline sizes.
The face maintains consistent modulation across capitals, lowercase, and figures, creating a stable reading rhythm. The pointed, wedge-like serifs and sharp joins contribute to a slightly engraved feel, while the relatively tight internal spaces keep the text block dense and composed.
