A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines, weighty verticals, and sharply tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketed and relatively fine, giving the letters a carved, calligraphic finish rather than a blocky presence. Proportions feel traditional with moderate caps, a normal x-height, and clear differentiation between thick and thin strokes; curves are smooth and slightly tensioned, and joins are clean and controlled. Lowercase forms show classic text-serif detailing (notably the two-storey a and g), with compact counters and a steady baseline rhythm.
Well-suited to long-form editorial typography such as books, magazines, and formal documents where a classic serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and elegant titling when a refined, traditional tone is needed.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, leaning toward literary and editorial refinement. Its sharp contrast and delicate serifs convey formality and authority, with a subtly elegant, old-world character suited to composed, serious typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif experience with heightened contrast and crisp detailing, balancing readability with a more polished, formal texture. Its consistent rhythm and classic letterforms suggest it was drawn for composed typography in editorial and literary contexts.
In text, the face maintains a steady, even color while retaining noticeable sparkle from the hairlines and fine serifs. Uppercase forms read stately and well-proportioned, while the numerals match the same contrast and serifed structure, reinforcing a cohesive, classical voice.
