A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, hairline serifs, and a crisp, finely drawn finish. The forms show a largely vertical axis with tapered strokes and bracketed serif transitions that stay delicate even where stems thicken. Proportions lean classical and slightly narrow in places, with tall capitals, round counters, and careful spacing that supports continuous reading. The lowercase shows a traditional serif skeleton with compact joins, a two-storey g, and graceful, thin linking strokes that emphasize the calligraphic contrast.
Well-suited to magazine typography, book work, and other editorial settings where a refined serif voice is desired. It can serve as a confident display face for titles and pull quotes, and also performs in longer passages when reproduction preserves its delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and sophisticated, with a distinctly editorial and literary feel. Its sharp hairlines and poised rhythm suggest formality and restraint rather than friendliness, giving text a boutique, high-end voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast reading experience with an upscale editorial character. It prioritizes elegance and typographic tradition through disciplined serif construction, vertical stress, and carefully balanced proportions.
Large sizes reveal especially fine hairlines and sharp terminals, while the numerals and capitals keep a dignified, old-style bookish presence. The design favors clarity through disciplined proportions and consistent contrast, making it feel at home in carefully typeset layouts.
