A high-contrast serif with strong vertical stress, crisp hairlines, and bracketed wedge-like serifs. The proportions read generously wide, with ample counters and a steady, upright posture. Curves are smoothly modeled with a slightly calligraphic finish, especially in letters like a, e, g, and s, while capitals show restrained, traditional construction and confident horizontal strokes. Numerals and lowercase maintain a consistent rhythm, producing a clear, deliberate texture in paragraphs.
This face is well suited to editorial contexts such as magazine headings, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, and refined branding where a traditional serif voice is desired. Its strong contrast and wide proportions make it particularly effective for display typography and larger text settings where detail and stroke modulation can be appreciated.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, with a formal, bookish presence. Its sharp contrast and wide stance give it a stately, composed character that feels suited to established institutions and traditional publishing.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, literary serif voice with heightened refinement through pronounced stroke contrast and carefully bracketed serifs. It aims to balance classical authority with a polished, contemporary crispness for editorial and titling use.
In text, the contrast creates a lively sparkle, and the widened set makes word shapes feel open and airy. Terminals and serif joins stay clean rather than blunt, helping the design remain elegant at display sizes while still reading as a conventional text serif.
