A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and bracketed serifs that sharpen into fine points. Curves are smooth and controlled, while terminals often finish with subtle teardrop or wedge-like shapes that give the outlines a slightly calligraphic tension. Proportions lean elegant rather than sturdy, with a relatively small x-height and clear modulation between thick verticals and hairline joins, producing a bright, rhythmic texture in text. The numerals and capitals keep a composed, traditional structure, with the overall color staying clean and open rather than dense.
Well-suited to book typography and editorial layouts where a crisp, traditional serif voice is desired. It also performs nicely for magazine features and display lines, especially when you want a refined, classic tone for titles, pull quotes, and formal printed materials such as invitations or programs.
The overall tone is classical and literary, conveying formality and editorial polish. Its sharp serifs and pronounced contrast feel refined and authoritative, with a quiet, traditional elegance suitable for serious reading contexts.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances readability with a polished, traditional character. It aims to provide an elegant page color and familiar letterforms while adding visual sophistication through sharp serifs and strong stroke modulation.
In larger sizes the hairlines and sharp serif points become a defining feature, adding a refined sparkle. The italic is not shown; the displayed style reads as a disciplined, upright roman designed for consistent paragraph rhythm.
