A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed wedge serifs and a smooth, bookish rhythm. Curves are generously rounded with sharp, tapered terminals, while verticals remain firm, giving the letters a polished, print-oriented presence. Uppercase proportions feel stately and evenly spaced, and the lowercase shows a traditional structure with a two-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and clear, upright stress through bowls. Numerals are proportional with strong contrast and decisive serifing, matching the text color and cadence of the alphabet.
Well suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine text where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs convincingly for headlines, pull quotes, and identity work that benefits from a refined, traditional tone.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, evoking traditional publishing and formal typography. Its sharp serifs and pronounced contrast add a sense of authority and sophistication, while the rounded bowls keep the texture readable and composed rather than ornate.
The font appears designed as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances elegance with disciplined readability. Its bracketed serifs, traditional lowercase forms, and measured proportions suggest an intention to serve as a dependable workhorse for editorial and literary settings while still offering a distinguished display presence at larger sizes.
The design reads cleanly in paragraph-style sample text, producing a consistent, slightly sparkling texture from the contrast and sharp terminals. Capitals and lowercase appear harmonized, with a restrained, conventional voice suited to extended reading as well as prominent titling.
