A conventional text serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and bracketed wedge-like serifs. Capitals are fairly broad with steady vertical stress, and curves are smoothly drawn with crisp joins. Lowercase forms show traditional proportions, a two-storey “a,” compact apertures, and modestly sized terminals that keep the texture even in paragraph settings. Numerals follow the same model, with clear contrast and sturdy serifs that read confidently at display and text sizes.
Well suited to book interiors, long-form editorial layouts, and institutional documents where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also performs convincingly for section heads, pull quotes, and formal headlines thanks to its strong contrast and crisp serif definition.
The overall tone is classical and literary, evoking traditional book typography and academic publishing. Its strong contrast and confident serifs add a formal, editorial voice without drifting into decorative territory.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional serif for comfortable reading and familiar typographic color, balancing refined high-contrast shapes with sturdy construction for general-purpose publishing.
In continuous text the letterspacing and rhythm feel stable and slightly generous, producing a clear, structured color. Details like the curled “Q” tail, the angled leg on “R,” and the bracketed feet throughout reinforce a historically informed, print-oriented character.
