A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The capitals are stately and well-proportioned with sharp terminals and smooth, calligraphic curves, while the lowercase shows compact bodies with relatively tall ascenders and a traditional, oldstyle-informed rhythm. Joins and bowls are clean and controlled, counters are open without feeling wide, and spacing reads even and text-forward. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and tapered details that align with the letterforms.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and essays, as well as editorial layouts where a polished, traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for formal titles, pull quotes, and invitation-style applications where contrast and sharp serifs communicate refinement.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, with a distinctly literary, editorial feel. Its high-contrast drawing and sharp finishing details suggest formality and care, making it feel appropriate for prestigious or traditional contexts rather than casual or utilitarian ones.
The font appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that delivers an established, classic reading experience. Its proportions and finishing details prioritize elegance and typographic tradition, supporting both continuous text and dignified display use at larger sizes.
The design leans on conventional serif construction with a noticeable calligraphic influence in strokes and terminals. It holds a clear hierarchy between capitals and lowercase and maintains a consistent texture across mixed-case text, favoring elegance over ruggedness.
