This serif shows sharply cut, bracketed serifs with a pronounced thick–thin stroke rhythm and clean, tapered terminals. Proportions feel classical and moderately compact, with sturdy verticals and gently modulated curves that keep counters open and orderly. The lowercase has a steady text rhythm, with a two-storey “g” and “a”, a beaked “t”, and a slightly calligraphic flow in joins; numerals follow the same contrast and have clear, upright forms.
Well suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also serve for magazines, academic publishing, and formal communications, while scaling up nicely for headlines that benefit from crisp, traditional letterforms.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, suggesting careful, established typography rather than novelty. Its crisp serifs and controlled contrast read as refined and authoritative, giving text a composed, editorial voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a classic, high-contrast profile—balancing legibility and a polished, print-oriented presence. Its shapes and rhythm prioritize steady paragraph color while retaining enough sharp detail to feel distinguished in display sizes.
In larger settings the sharp serifs and contrast become especially prominent, lending a slightly engraved, print-classic character. Spacing appears even and conservative, supporting continuous reading while still delivering distinct letterforms in headlines.
