A high-contrast serif with clear thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. Capitals are stately with balanced proportions and sharp terminals, while the lowercase shows a sturdy, readable construction with a moderate x-height and traditional two-storey forms where expected. Curves are smoothly drawn with slightly vertical stress, counters are open, and spacing feels even, producing a steady text rhythm; numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with lining figures that sit confidently on the baseline.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also performs strongly for literary titles, institutional communications, and print materials that benefit from a conservative, established voice.
The overall tone is classic and formal, evoking bookish tradition and editorial authority. Its sharp serifs and polished contrast add a refined, slightly ceremonial character that reads as established and trustworthy.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast reading serif that balances elegance with practicality. Its controlled modulation, traditional proportions, and consistent detailing suggest a focus on dependable text composition with enough sharpness to carry display roles.
In larger sizes the fine hairlines and pointed terminals become prominent, giving headings a crisp, engraved feel, while the more substantial main strokes keep paragraphs composed and legible. The typeface maintains a consistent old-style/transitional flavor across letters and figures, with lively diagonals in forms like V/W/X and a composed, dignified presence in rounded letters.
