A high-contrast serif with bracketed serifs and a distinctly calligraphic modulation. Capitals are fairly wide and stately, with sharp apexes (A, V, W) and clean, sculpted joins; the Q features a flowing tail. Lowercase shows traditional, slightly oldstyle proportions with a two-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and a gently angled, bracketed serif treatment throughout. Numerals mix lining proportions with noticeable stroke contrast; curves (0, 3, 8, 9) are smooth and balanced, and the 1 has a prominent top serif.
Well suited to continuous reading in books and long-form editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for magazine typography, institutional communications, and brand systems that need a classic, refined tone, with enough contrast to carry headlines and pull quotes.
The overall tone is classical and literary, with a poised, editorial voice that feels established and trustworthy. Its crisp contrast and carefully shaped serifs add a formal, slightly ceremonial character suited to polished reading experiences.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that channels classic print traditions, combining strong contrast with readable, well-structured forms. It aims to deliver a familiar, authoritative texture on the page while retaining elegant details for display-sized settings.
Spacing and rhythm appear even in the sample text, with clear word shapes and steady vertical emphasis. The italic is not shown; all samples present a consistent upright roman with pronounced thick–thin transitions and refined terminals.
