A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and narrow, tapered hairlines. Serifs are bracketed and finely cut, with a mix of sharp terminals and gently cupped finishes that keep the texture lively. Capitals feel stately and moderately wide with clear vertical stress, while lowercase forms show traditional, slightly calligraphic shaping—two‑storey a and g, open apertures, and a subtle rhythm of curves against strong stems. Numerals appear oldstyle in the sample, adding a bookish, text-forward character and a varied, flowing baseline pattern.
Well-suited to books, magazines, and other editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also serve effectively for display typography—chapter titles, pull quotes, and refined branding or invitations—where its contrast and finishing details can be appreciated.
The overall tone is cultured and traditional, with an editorial seriousness suited to long-form reading. High-contrast strokes and elegant finishing details give it a refined, slightly dramatic presence that reads as literary and established rather than trendy.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional reading experience with elevated contrast and carefully drawn details, balancing familiar text shapes with a more polished, dressy edge for editorial and formal applications.
In larger sizes the fine hairlines and delicate serifs become prominent design features, producing a bright page color and a sophisticated cadence. The glyph set shown emphasizes conventional proportions and familiar forms, prioritizing clarity and a composed, print-like texture.
