A crisp, high-contrast serif with tapered, calligraphic stroke transitions and finely shaped bracketed serifs. The capitals show classical proportions with a stately rhythm, while the lowercase maintains clear structure and open counters, supporting extended reading. Curves are smooth and controlled, joins are clean, and terminals often finish with a slight flare or pointed edge, giving the design a precise, engraved feel. Numerals follow the same contrast and serif logic, matching the text color and vertical alignment of the alphabet.
Well-suited to book interiors, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine typography where a traditional serif voice and clear reading rhythm are desired. It also works effectively for formal stationery and refined headings, especially when paired with generous spacing and moderate line lengths.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, evoking book typography, editorial formality, and a sense of established authority. Its sharp detailing and bright, orderly rhythm lend it a poised, refined character rather than a casual or rustic one.
The design appears intended to provide a dependable, classical text serif with a polished, high-contrast finish—prioritizing elegance, typographic tradition, and a clean reading texture for editorial and publishing contexts.
In text settings, the face produces a relatively light, airy page color with pronounced thick–thin modulation, which helps keep paragraphs from feeling heavy at larger sizes. The italics are not shown, and the displayed set emphasizes a balanced, conventional serif voice with crisp details suited to careful typesetting.
