A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and subtly flared terminals that give strokes a tapered, calligraphic finish. Capitals are stately with sharp apexes and clean, symmetrical construction, while the lowercase shows a compact rhythm with distinctly modeled joins and pronounced thick–thin transitions. Curves (C, G, O, Q) are smoothly drawn with narrow entry/exit strokes, and the numerals follow the same engraved contrast, with teardrop-like terminals and delicate hairlines that stay controlled at text sizes.
Well-suited to editorial design, long-form reading, and book typography where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and formal branding systems that benefit from high-contrast elegance and crisp finishing.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, leaning toward bookish and institutional rather than playful. Its sharp contrast and refined finishing convey seriousness and authority, with a slightly ceremonial, classical flavor.
The design appears intended to evoke a classical, print-rooted serif tradition with a refined, engraved-like contrast and gently flared terminals, balancing readability with a dignified, formal presence.
In text, the strong vertical stress and crisp hairlines create a bright page color and a clear hierarchy, especially in capitals and punctuation. The shapes feel carefully normalized and consistent across cases, with a measured, editorial cadence that favors composed settings over casual display.
