This typeface shows a classic serif structure with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a strong vertical axis. Serifs are fine and sharp, with crisp endings and minimal bracketing, giving the forms a clean, precise silhouette. Proportions are slightly condensed in the lowercase with a relatively small x-height, while ascenders and capitals read tall and stately. Curves are smooth and controlled (notably in O/C/Q), and the overall rhythm in text is even, with delicate hairlines that contrast clearly against sturdier stems.
It works especially well for editorial typography—magazines, book interiors, and literary publishing—where its contrast and traditional proportions can provide a cultivated reading color. It also suits display applications like refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal announcements where crisp hairlines and elegant capitals can be shown at comfortable sizes.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, conveying an editorial, literary character. Its refined contrast and crisp details lend it a sense of formality and authority, with a quiet sophistication suited to premium, print-minded typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, high-contrast serif voice with a clean, contemporary finish—balancing classic bookish proportions with sharp, modernized detailing for polished editorial use.
The numeral set follows the same refined contrast, with open counters and delicate joins that feel consistent with the capitals. In the lowercase, the two-storey forms (such as a and g) and the compact x-height contribute to a classic reading texture, while the sharper, tapered terminals keep the design feeling crisp rather than soft or calligraphic.
