A high-contrast serif with a crisp, engraved feel and subtly flared stroke endings. The serifs are bracketed and sharp, with tapered terminals and clean joins that produce a bright, polished rhythm in text. Curves are smooth and generously drawn (notably in C, O, and Q), while verticals remain authoritative; overall proportions feel traditionally bookish with a steady, readable texture.
Well-suited for editorial typography, book interiors, and magazine-style layouts where a refined serif texture is desired. It also performs strongly in display settings—titles, pull quotes, and packaging or brand marks—where its contrast and tapered details can convey sophistication. For formal materials such as invitations or programs, its classic shapes and crisp terminals help maintain a dignified presence.
The tone is formal and cultivated, balancing classical seriousness with a touch of dramatic contrast. It reads as literary and editorial, suggesting heritage, ceremony, and premium presentation without becoming overly ornate.
Designed to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened contrast and subtly flared details, combining traditional proportions with a more dramatic, polished finish. The intention appears to be a versatile, print-like text and display face that conveys refinement while keeping a coherent, readable rhythm.
The capitals show stately, inscription-like forms with pronounced contrast and carefully shaped serifs, while the lowercase maintains a controlled, slightly calligraphic flow. Numerals appear traditional and high-contrast, matching the text color and reinforcing a refined, print-oriented character.
