A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a balanced, traditional construction. Strokes show a clear thick–thin modulation, with sharper terminals on letters like C, S, and a, and tapered diagonals on V/W/Y that feel slightly calligraphic. The capitals are stately and open, with generous counters and a controlled, even rhythm in text. Lowercase forms are compact and readable, featuring a two-storey g and a gently curved, hooking descender on y; figures are lining with similarly high contrast and delicate curves.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine text where a traditional, polished serif is desired. It also performs nicely for refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials such as invitations or cultural programs, especially when set with comfortable leading.
The overall tone is classic and literary, projecting refinement and authority rather than warmth or playfulness. Its sharp hairlines and disciplined proportions give it a formal, editorial character suited to serious or traditional messaging.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that nods to classic print traditions while staying clean and controlled for contemporary composition.
In larger sizes the fine hairlines and pointed terminals become a defining stylistic feature, while in dense paragraphs the steady spacing and open counters help maintain clarity. The rounded letters (O/Q/0) appear slightly narrow and vertically oriented, reinforcing a composed, book-like color on the page.
