A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines, sturdier main strokes, and distinctly bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a traditional, slightly calligraphic stress with carefully tapered joins and sharp, precise terminals. Capitals feel stately and proportioned for text settings, while the lowercase maintains an even rhythm with clear counters and modestly sized apertures. Numerals and punctuation match the same refined contrast and finish, giving the overall design a polished, print-oriented texture.
Well-suited to book typography, editorial layouts, and magazine text where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and section titles that benefit from high-contrast refinement while staying within a conventional text-serif aesthetic.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone—formal without feeling ornamental. Its sharp finishing and traditional proportions suggest editorial seriousness and a sense of heritage, lending text a composed, authoritative voice.
The design appears intended as a contemporary take on a classic book serif: high contrast, carefully finished serifs, and a steady reading rhythm aimed at comfortable, formal typography in continuous text and editorial applications.
Spacing appears measured and consistent, producing a smooth typographic color in paragraph text. The contrast is pronounced enough to feel elegant in display sizes, yet the shapes remain conventional and disciplined, emphasizing readability and typographic tradition over novelty.
