A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Serifs are bracketed and relatively delicate, with a slightly calligraphic shaping in joins and stroke endings. Capitals feel stately and open, with generous counters and controlled, classical proportions; the Q has a long, sweeping tail. Lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with compact, neatly finished serifs, a two-storey g, and a slight wedge-like finishing on several terminals, contributing to a lively yet disciplined texture. Numerals appear lining with similar contrast and sharp detailing, including a curled 2 and a distinctive 9 terminal.
Well-suited to book typography, magazine and newspaper-style editorial layouts, and refined branding systems. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and formal invitations where a polished, traditional voice is desired.
The overall tone is classic and cultured, balancing authority with a light, graceful touch. It reads as literary and editorial, with an understated sophistication suited to traditional typographic settings.
The font appears designed to deliver a conventional, high-finish serif voice with classical proportions and heightened contrast, aiming for elegance and readability in editorial contexts while retaining distinctive, crisp detailing.
In text, the contrast and fine serifs create a bright page color at larger sizes, while the pointed terminals and narrow joins add sparkle. The design’s sharp details and tall verticals suggest it will benefit from comfortable sizes and adequate leading in continuous reading.
