A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered strokes and crisp, bracketed serifs that read as elegant and slightly calligraphic. The capitals are broad and stately with triangular apexes and fine hairlines, while the lowercase maintains a steady, traditional text rhythm with pronounced thick–thin modulation. Curves in letters like C, S, and O are smoothly drawn with tight terminals, and the figures show clear oldstyle influence in their varying shapes and lively details. Overall spacing feels display-leaning: generous forms with distinct internal counters and a sculpted silhouette at larger sizes.
Well-suited for editorial and publishing contexts such as magazine headlines, book covers, section openers, and pull quotes where its contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It can also support sophisticated branding applications—logos, packaging, and invitations—especially when used at sizes that preserve its fine hairlines.
The tone is classical and editorial, evoking book typography and heritage printing. It feels formal and confident, with a refined sharpness that lends authority to titles and pull quotes while remaining rooted in familiar serif conventions.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast serif voice with a crisp, contemporary finish—balancing traditional proportions with sharper terminals and display-level detailing for impactful reading at larger sizes.
Several glyphs feature distinctive pointed terminals and energetic joins (notably in K, R, and the diagonals of V/W), giving the design a lively texture despite its traditional foundation. The numerals appear characterful and slightly varied in posture, contributing to a period-tinged, literary feel in mixed text settings.
