A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin transitions, crisp bracketed serifs, and a predominantly vertical stress. Capitals are stately and evenly proportioned, with sharp apexes and clean, tapering terminals. Lowercase forms show compact, readable counters and a steady rhythm, with distinctive ball terminals and teardrop-like finishing strokes on letters such as a, c, f, and y. Numerals and punctuation follow the same calligraphic modulation, producing a polished texture that remains clear at display sizes.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial layouts, especially where a classic, high-contrast serif is desired for titles, pull quotes, and section heads. It also fits formal branding, invitations, and packaging that benefit from a traditional, premium voice.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, evoking book typography and established editorial design. Its sharp detailing and glossy contrast convey authority and formality while still feeling approachable enough for extended reading when sized appropriately.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, bookish serif voice with elevated contrast and precise finishing—prioritizing clarity and tradition while adding enough sharpness and terminal detail to perform confidently in prominent editorial and display settings.
Diagonal letters (V, W, X, Y) are strongly sculpted with narrow joins and tapered ends, giving headlines a crisp, engraved-like snap. The ampersand and curved letters (C, G, S) emphasize smooth, controlled curves with carefully pinched terminals, contributing to a refined, slightly dramatic color on the page.
