A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp hairline terminals. Serifs are fine and largely bracketed, with crisp joins and a slightly calligraphic, engraved feel in the curves. Uppercase forms are stately and spacious, while lowercase shows traditional proportions with clear, open counters and a rhythmic alternation of heavy stems and delicate cross-strokes. Numerals and capitals share the same contrasty, formal structure, producing a bright, refined color in text when set with comfortable leading.
Well suited to editorial design, book typography, and magazine layouts where high contrast and refined detail are assets. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks that want a classic, premium tone, especially at display sizes where the hairline serifs and sharp modulation can be appreciated.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, evoking book typography, magazines, and formal communications. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted curves read as upscale and confident rather than utilitarian, giving layouts a sense of ceremony and craft.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, literature-forward serif voice with a distinctly modern crispness in the hairlines and terminals. It prioritizes elegance and typographic refinement, aiming to provide strong hierarchy in headlines while remaining credible for longer reading when set carefully.
Round letters (C, G, O, Q) emphasize smooth, sweeping curves against very thin horizontals, and the italics are not shown—everything presented is upright. At larger sizes, the hairlines and small details become a defining feature; in dense settings they may benefit from generous spacing and line height to preserve the delicate strokes.
