A refined serif with pronounced stroke contrast and crisp, bracketed serifs. Curves transition smoothly into stems, with tapered terminals and a distinctly calligraphic modulation that stays controlled rather than decorative. Proportions are balanced with moderate extenders, open counters, and a steady rhythm that holds together from capitals through text sizes. The lowercase shows a traditional book-face structure—two-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and a sturdy, slightly tapered t—while figures appear lining and mix rounded bowls with sharp hairlines for a clear, formal texture.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and literary publishing, where its classic construction and open counters support comfortable text. It also performs strongly in magazines, essays, and formal communications, and can provide an elevated voice for headings, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks that want a traditional serif tone.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, with an editorial polish that reads as cultured and trustworthy. Its contrast and tidy finishing details add a sense of sophistication, making it feel more “published” than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears aimed at a conventional, high-quality reading experience with a slightly dressy edge—prioritizing classical proportions, clear letterforms, and a refined contrast profile that signals seriousness and craft.
Capitals are stately and well-contained, with clean internal spaces (notably in C, G, O, and Q) and sharp apexes where relevant. The sample text shows clear word shapes and consistent color, with the contrast contributing to a lightly sparkling texture in longer lines.
