A high-contrast serif with bracketed, slightly flared serifs and smooth transitions from thick to thin strokes. The forms are compact and well-contained, with round counters, a vertical stress in the bowls, and a clear, traditional rhythm across text. Curved joins and tapered terminals give it a carved, ink-on-paper feel, and the overall texture stays even while retaining noticeable sparkle from the thin hairlines.
Well-suited to editorial and publishing contexts such as magazines, books, essays, and long-form articles, where its contrast and serifs reinforce structure and hierarchy. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or brand communications that need a classic, authoritative tone.
This typeface projects a classic, literary tone with a confident, editorial voice. Its crisp contrast and sculpted serifs feel formal and established, while the lively curves add a subtle, human warmth rather than a purely austere mood.
The design appears intended for conventional reading environments where a familiar serif structure and strong contrast can convey credibility. Its details suggest an aim for refined typography—clean enough for modern composition, yet rooted in book and editorial traditions.
The uppercase has a stately presence with generous curves in letters like C and G, while the lowercase maintains a sturdy, readable cadence with pronounced serifs and clear stroke modulation. Numerals appear aligned with the same high-contrast, traditional styling, making them consistent with text settings.
