A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The forms feel delicately drawn, with tapered terminals, narrow joins, and a slightly calligraphic stroke logic that stays controlled and upright. Capitals are stately and open, with strong vertical stress and generous interior counters, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm and clear differentiation between characters. Numerals echo the same contrast and finishing, with elegant curves and small, sharp details at terminals.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and magazine settings where a classic, refined serif voice is desired. It can also serve in formal invitations and premium branding, especially at sizes where the contrast and fine terminals remain clear.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, leaning toward cultured and formal rather than casual. Its high-contrast strokes and crisp finishing suggest sophistication and ceremony, making it feel at home in editorial and literary contexts.
The design appears intended to modernize a conventional text serif by emphasizing clean contrast, crisp serifs, and elegant proportions while keeping the overall structure familiar and readable for continuous setting.
In text, the font creates a polished, high-end texture with clear letter boundaries and a slightly dressy sparkle from the contrast and sharp serifs. The italic is not shown; the roman’s detailing is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving paragraphs a cohesive, classical color.
