A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines, weighty vertical stems, and finely bracketed wedge serifs. The overall drawing feels wide and open, with generous counters and a measured, steady rhythm across text. Curves are smooth and controlled, and terminals tend toward sharp, tapered finishes rather than blunt cuts. Numerals and capitals read with a sturdy, monumental presence, while the lowercase maintains a conventional text-seriffed structure with clear apertures and a composed, bookish texture.
Well suited to editorial typography, magazine layouts, and literary or cultural branding where a classic serif voice is desired. It can serve effectively for headlines and display settings, and can also work for short to moderate reading passages when sufficient size and print/hi‑DPI rendering preserve the fine hairlines.
The font projects a polished, editorial tone—refined and traditional without feeling fragile. Its sharp contrasts and sculpted serifs add a sense of prestige and ceremony, while the open spacing and stable proportions keep it readable and authoritative.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic text serif: emphasizing elegance through strong contrast and refined serifs, while keeping proportions open and steady for composed, professional typography.
In the sample text, the thick–thin modulation is especially noticeable on round letters and diagonals, producing a crisp sparkle at larger sizes. The wide set and large internal spaces help prevent the text from feeling cramped, even with the dramatic hairlines.
