A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, sharp triangular terminals, and bracketed serifs that read cleanly at text sizes. The uppercase is stately and open, with a slightly calligraphic stress visible in round forms like C, G, and O. Lowercase shows traditional proportions and compact, sturdy stems; the two-storey a and g and the narrow, crisp f reinforce a conventional book-face feel. Numerals are lining figures with strong vertical emphasis and clear, angular joins, matching the overall crispness of the serif treatment.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, journals, and essays, where its traditional proportions and clear serif structure support comfortable flow. It also fits editorial layouts, magazine typography, and refined branding that wants a classic, authoritative voice without feeling ornate.
The tone is traditional and polished, evoking established publishing and academic typography. Its crisp contrast and sculpted serifs lend a sense of seriousness and authority while staying approachable for extended reading.
The font appears designed as a conventional text serif that prioritizes readability and typographic tradition, using strong contrast and crisp, bracketed serifs to convey refinement and credibility across continuous text and display-sized headings.
The design balances sharp terminals with gently bracketed joins, creating a rhythm that feels both energetic and controlled. Curves are smooth and fairly open, while diagonals and joins (notably in M, N, and W) stay disciplined, supporting consistent color in paragraphs.
