A classic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and bracketed, wedge-like serifs that give strokes a crisp, chiseled finish. Capitals are stately and well-proportioned with sharp apexes (notably in A and W) and clear, traditional stress in rounded forms. Lowercase shows a sturdy, book-oriented build with round dots, a two-storey g, and a gently curved ear on the g; spacing reads even, with a slightly lively rhythm from the contrast and tapered terminals. Numerals appear traditional and lining, with strong verticals and clear differentiation between forms.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine text where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs convincingly in headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or heritage branding that benefits from a formal, established tone.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, evoking print heritage and academic or institutional typography. Its high-contrast structure and crisp serifs create a refined, slightly ceremonial feel that suits serious, text-forward communication.
The font appears intended as a conventional, book-centric serif with elevated contrast and crisp detailing, aiming to balance readability with a distinctly traditional, cultured presence. Its disciplined forms and consistent serif treatment suggest an emphasis on dependable text setting and confident display use.
The design maintains a consistent serif and contrast logic across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive page color in paragraph settings. Curved letters show evident diagonal stress, while joins and terminals stay sharp and controlled, reinforcing a polished editorial voice.
