A traditional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Capitals are wide and steady with sharp, triangular terminals and a slightly calligraphic stress, while the lowercase shows compact, bookish forms with open bowls and clear apertures. Curves are smooth and controlled, and joins are clean, giving the face a composed texture in both display and text. Figures appear as oldstyle (text) numerals with varied heights and descenders, matching the flowing rhythm of the lowercase.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and essays, as well as editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and titling that benefits from crisp contrast and a traditional voice.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with an academic, editorial confidence. Its high-contrast strokes and refined serifs read as formal and established, suitable for contexts that want tradition and authority rather than minimalism or novelty.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif that balances refinement with practicality—delivering familiar book typography cues, clear letterforms, and a confident presence in both continuous text and larger sizes.
The ampersand is compact and traditional, and punctuation feels sturdy and straightforward. The sample text shows a consistent rhythm and strong word shapes, with distinctive, slightly sharp terminals that add crispness without becoming decorative.
