A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and tensioned, while terminals often finish in sharp, wedge-like points that add sparkle in display sizes. Proportions feel traditional and balanced: capitals are stately with moderate width, lowercase is steady and readable with a conventional x-height, and spacing appears even with a slightly lively rhythm from the contrast and tapered joins. Numerals are lining with clear, open forms and consistent stroke logic.
Well-suited to book typography and long-form editorial layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. The contrast and sharp finishing details also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and refined brand identities, particularly in print-forward or luxury-leaning contexts.
The overall tone is classical and composed, projecting an editorial, literary sensibility. Its sharp serifs and high-contrast strokes lend a sense of polish and formality, suitable for elegant, traditional settings rather than casual or playful ones.
Designed to deliver a conventional, high-contrast serif look with a polished, authoritative presence. The intent appears focused on traditional readability paired with enough sharp detailing to perform confidently in display and editorial applications.
Diagonal strokes (notably in letters like A, V, W, and y) show confident tapering and clean apexes, contributing to a crisp texture. Round letters maintain open counters, and the punctuation and numerals match the same restrained, traditional detailing, keeping the color consistent across mixed text.
