A compact serif with moderately tapered strokes and subtly flared, bracketed endings that keep the color even while adding a carved, calligraphic feel. Capitals are tall and narrow with clean, confident serifs; curves are smooth and slightly condensed, giving the alphabet a tidy rhythm. Lowercase maintains a straightforward, readable structure with a traditional two-story “a,” a simple “g,” and a narrow overall set that feels controlled rather than airy. Numerals follow the same restrained proportions, with clear, classic forms and minimal ornament.
Well-suited to editorial typography where a compact serif can carry dense information with a traditional voice. It also works effectively for headlines, subheads, and formal branding where a refined, literary tone is desirable, as well as invitations and certificates that benefit from a classic serif presence.
The tone is classical and bookish, conveying authority and tradition without feeling overly ornamental. Its compactness and tapered details suggest seriousness and craft, making it feel at home in formal, text-forward contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with a slightly sharpened, flared finish—balancing readability with a crafted, engraved-like character. Its narrow proportions suggest an aim for efficient setting while maintaining a formal, established look.
Stroke endings often narrow into sharp points or small wedges, and joins are clean, which helps the design stay crisp at display sizes. The overall spacing and proportions read as economical, giving long lines a composed, structured appearance.
