A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a traditional, calligraphic stress with rounded bowls and clearly articulated joints, producing a steady rhythm in text. Capitals are stately and slightly wide in feel, with clean horizontal serifs on E/F/T and a balanced, open C/G. Lowercase maintains a conventional structure with a two-storey a and g, compact shoulders, and tidy terminals that stay sharp without becoming overly delicate.
This typeface is well suited to book and long-form editorial settings where a classic serif voice is desired, as well as magazines and cultural publishing. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or heritage-leaning branding that benefits from a refined, traditional texture.
The overall tone is classical and editorial, evoking book typography and established print traditions. Its confident contrast and orderly proportions read as formal and refined, suited to serious or literary contexts rather than playful ones.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable text serif with elevated contrast for a more polished, print-forward character. It aims to balance clarity and tradition while providing enough presence to carry both running text and prominent titling.
Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic and align well with the surrounding text, with clear differentiation between figures. In the sample paragraph the face holds together at display-to-text sizes, where the contrast and serifs remain prominent and give lines a distinctly traditional texture.
