A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply finished, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a traditional, slightly calligraphic stress with smooth curves and tapered terminals, giving capitals a dignified, sculpted presence. Lowercase forms read cleanly with compact bowls and decisive joins; the overall rhythm is even and composed, with clear differentiation between rounds and verticals and a measured, text-forward proportioning.
Well-suited to book and magazine typography, editorial layouts, and formal communication where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also performs convincingly for headlines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks that benefit from refined contrast and classic proportions.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone—polished and authoritative without feeling ornamental. Its crisp contrast and traditional detailing suggest formality and heritage, aligning well with established editorial and institutional aesthetics.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a refined, print-classic character—balancing readability with a confident, elevated tone through high contrast, bracketed serifs, and carefully shaped curves.
In the samples, the strong contrast and fine hairlines create a bright, crisp texture at display sizes, while the controlled spacing keeps words cohesive. Figures and capitals feel particularly stately, with a slightly dramatic presence that suits titling and emphasized text.
