A conventional text serif with clear, bracketed wedge serifs and pronounced stroke contrast. The forms show a slightly calligraphic modulation, with tapered joins and crisp, pointed terminals that give the letters a lively edge without becoming decorative. Proportions are moderately narrow with steady spacing and an even typographic color; counters are open and the lowercase has a traditional rhythm with sturdy stems and softly rounded bowls. Numerals appear oldstyle, with varying heights and descenders that blend naturally into running text.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and magazine layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines and subheads, especially in editorial or cultural contexts that benefit from a classic, polished voice.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, projecting a composed, editorial voice. Its high-contrast detailing and sharp finishing lend a sense of authority and tradition, suitable for content that aims to feel established and carefully set.
Designed to deliver a familiar, historically rooted text-seriffed appearance with refined contrast and crisp serifs, balancing readability with a slightly sharpened, contemporary finish for editorial settings.
Capitals are stately and balanced, with strong vertical stress and refined serifs that stay crisp at display sizes. The italic is not shown; the sample suggests the roman is optimized for readable paragraphs while still offering enough sparkle for headings and pull quotes.
