A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a strongly vertical stress. Strokes transition sharply from thick stems to hairline horizontals, giving the letters a bright, engraved rhythm while maintaining sturdy main stems. Terminals often finish in small teardrops or ball forms (notably in several lowercase letters), and curves are carefully tapered rather than geometric. Proportions read as traditional for text, with moderate ascenders and descenders and clear differentiation between narrow letters (like I) and broader rounds (like O), creating a lively but controlled texture in paragraph settings.
Well-suited to editorial typography, book interiors, and literary or cultural publishing where a classic serif texture is desired. It also performs effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials such as invitations or certificates, where the contrast and detailing can be appreciated.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a polished, bookish elegance. Its sharp contrast and precise detailing suggest a cultured, editorial voice—more formal than casual, and more classical than contemporary.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, readable serif voice with added refinement through sharp contrast and carefully shaped terminals. It balances traditional proportions with decorative nuance to provide both text utility and a more elevated, editorial character.
Uppercase forms feel stately and stable, while the lowercase adds personality through small terminal flourishes and pronounced contrast. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with clear, old-style-influenced shapes and strong verticals that keep them legible at display sizes.
