A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a strongly calligraphic stress. Strokes transition quickly from thick to hairline, producing sharp joins, tapered terminals, and fine detailing in apertures and counters. Proportions feel traditionally bookish: capitals are sturdy and fairly wide, while lowercase forms keep a moderate x-height with clear ascenders and descenders; round letters show pronounced vertical emphasis. Numerals and punctuation follow the same contrasty logic, with thin horizontals and delicate curves that read best when given adequate size and printing resolution.
Well suited to book and magazine typography, especially for body text in comfortable sizes and for editorial settings where a classic, high-contrast serif is desired. It also performs strongly in headlines, pull quotes, and section openers where the fine hairlines and sharp serifs can be appreciated.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a refined, slightly dramatic polish typical of literary and editorial typography. Its sparkling hairlines and crisp serifs give it a formal voice that feels established rather than experimental.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, library-and-press aesthetic with elevated contrast and crisp finishing, balancing readability with a sophisticated, print-forward texture.
At text sizes the hairlines and tight inner spaces can look delicate, while at display sizes the contrast becomes a defining feature and the letterforms feel especially crisp. The rhythm is even and disciplined, with consistent serif treatment and controlled curves that support long-form composition.
