A strongly modeled serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and brisk, tapered serifs. Strokes show a calligraphic influence, with bracketed joins and wedge-like terminals that sharpen the rhythm of stems and diagonals. Counters are generous and the proportions feel slightly expansive, giving capitals a stately presence while lowercase maintains a readable, traditional structure. The italic is not shown; in roman, details like ball terminals and lively curves in letters such as a, f, g, and y add a sculpted, inked character rather than a purely mechanical one.
This style performs well for editorial typography, book and long-form text, and refined headlines where contrast and serif detail can carry tone. It also suits packaging and branding that aim for a classic, premium impression, especially when set at medium-to-large sizes where terminals and modulation remain crisp.
The overall tone is confident and traditional, with a slightly theatrical edge coming from the high contrast and assertive terminals. It reads as classic and bookish, suited to contexts that want heritage and authority, but with enough movement in the forms to feel expressive rather than austere.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif voice with heightened contrast and expressive terminals, balancing readability with a display-friendly presence. It emphasizes traditional proportions and familiar structures while using sculpted details to add personality and emphasis in headings and prominent text.
Figures appear oldstyle with noticeable ascender/descender behavior and varied widths, which reinforces an organic, text-forward color. Spacing and sidebearings look comfortable in the paragraph sample, supporting dense setting while keeping letterforms distinct at display sizes.
