This is a high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a predominantly vertical stress. Strokes transition from very thin hairlines to strong stems, producing a polished, rhythmic texture in text. The capitals are proportioned with classical restraint—wide bowls and steady verticals—while the lowercase shows compact, clean forms with clear counters and neatly finished terminals. Numerals follow the same refined logic, with strong thick–thin modulation and elegant curves, keeping the overall color even while remaining distinctly calligraphic in contrast.
Well-suited to editorial typography where a refined, traditional serif voice is desired, such as magazines, essays, and book interiors that can support high contrast. It also performs strongly in headlines, display pull quotes, and identity work where elegance and typographic authority are priorities.
The tone is classic and cultivated, projecting sophistication and authority without feeling ornamental. Its sharp hairlines and poised proportions read as confident and editorial, suggesting tradition, care, and formality.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text serif with a distinctly high-contrast, premium finish—combining classical proportions with crisp detailing for polished reading and elevated display use.
At larger sizes the hairlines and small details feel especially crisp and luxurious; in dense settings the strong contrast becomes a defining feature of the texture. Curves are smoothly drawn and the serif treatment stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, supporting a cohesive, bookish voice.
