This serif typeface shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with hairline serifs and crisp, sharply finished terminals. Curves exhibit a clear calligraphic stress and a smooth, slightly sculpted quality, while vertical stems carry most of the visual weight. The serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, giving joins a controlled softness without reducing the overall crispness. Uppercase proportions read broad and stately, with rounded letters (O, Q) showing elegant, tapered contrast and the Q featuring a restrained, sweeping tail. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with open counters and delicate entry/exit strokes that keep the figures refined at display sizes.
This font is well suited to editorial design, book and magazine headlines, and refined branding where a high-contrast serif can signal sophistication. It can also work effectively for formal announcements and invitations, particularly at larger sizes where the fine serifs and hairlines remain clear.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking traditional book typography and high-end magazine styling. Its high-contrast rhythm and fine detailing lend it a sense of luxury and formality, while the clean, upright stance keeps it composed rather than ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized take on a conventional high-contrast text serif: authoritative and readable in structure, but elevated through sharp finishing, pronounced modulation, and a distinctly editorial cadence.
In running text, the thin hairlines and delicate serifs create a shimmering texture, especially in dense passages and around diagonal joins. The lowercase includes a single-storey ‘g’ with a prominent ear and a compact, lively form, adding a subtly contemporary note within an otherwise classic construction.
