A high-contrast serif with thin hairlines, weighty main strokes, and finely bracketed serifs that taper to sharp points. Curves are smooth and controlled with an oldstyle-like modulation, giving rounded forms (C, O, e) a gently calligraphic feel. Proportions are slightly expanded, with generous counters and open apertures that keep the texture light on the page. The italic is not shown; the roman maintains a consistent, upright rhythm with crisp terminals and carefully balanced joins in complex letters like B, R, and g.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors where a refined serif texture is desired. The contrast and delicacy also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and luxury-oriented branding when set with adequate size and leading. It performs best in print-like contexts or high-resolution digital settings where fine hairlines can remain intact.
The overall tone is poised and traditional, projecting a sense of cultured formality. Its delicate hairlines and measured spacing read as sophisticated and editorial rather than rugged or utilitarian. The slightly airy, spacious forms lend it a calm, premium voice suited to polished typography.
The design appears intended as a conventional, literary serif with a polished, high-contrast voice—balancing classical proportions and calligraphic modulation with clean, precise finishing. It aims to deliver elegance and readability through open counters and disciplined rhythm while retaining enough sharp detail to feel premium in display use.
Numerals show a mix of lining-style presence with pronounced contrast and distinctive curves (notably the 2, 3, and 9), reinforcing the refined, display-friendly character. Lowercase details like the two-storey g, the softly arched r, and the wedge-like serifs on stems contribute to a classic book-face impression while keeping a clean, contemporary sharpness.
