A refined text serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered, bracketed serifs. The capitals are stately and open, with generous counters and a calm, vertical rhythm; curves feel smoothly drawn rather than mechanical. Lowercase forms show a traditional, slightly calligraphic construction with a two‑storey a and g, modest extenders, and crisp terminals that keep strokes clean at larger sizes. Numerals share the same high-contrast logic, with a mix of straight and rounded structures that read as classic and editorial.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial, and magazine layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively in elegant headlines and brand applications that benefit from a refined, traditional tone, especially at display and subhead sizes.
The overall tone is poised and traditional, suggesting literature, heritage, and careful craft. Its high-contrast sparkle and fine finishing details convey sophistication and formality without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast reading serif that balances classical proportions with crisp contemporary finishing. It prioritizes a polished page color and familiar letterforms for editorial clarity and a premium, literary voice.
In the text sample, the face holds a steady line texture with clear word shapes and a polished, print-like color. The italic is not shown; all characters appear upright and consistently finished, with punctuation and curves that reinforce a precise, editorial feel.
