A crisp, high-contrast serif with bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Capitals are stately and evenly proportioned, with sharp triangular joins and clean, slightly flared terminals on key strokes. The lowercase shows a traditional text-seriffed structure with a two-storey a and g, narrow joins, and compact, well-contained bowls; ascenders are firm and vertical, and the overall rhythm is steady rather than calligraphically loose. Numerals follow the same classical construction, mixing strong verticals with fine hairlines and clear, open counters.
Well suited to book typography and editorial layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It can carry body copy at comfortable sizes while also scaling effectively for headlines and display lines that benefit from its contrast and crisp serifs. It fits formal communications such as invitations, programs, and institutional collateral where a conventional, polished look is important.
The tone is traditional and composed, evoking printed literature, editorial gravity, and institutional formality. Its sharp contrast and tidy detailing give it a refined, slightly ceremonial presence suited to serious, heritage-leaning communication.
Designed to deliver a conventional, highly legible serif texture with a refined, print-oriented contrast profile. The intent appears to balance classical letterform cues with clean, consistent detailing so it can work across long-form reading and more prominent typographic roles.
Serifs read as well controlled and slightly bracketed, helping the face keep a polished text-color despite the thin hairlines. The sample text suggests an even baseline and consistent spacing that supports paragraph setting without feeling decorative.
