A refined serif with pronounced stroke modulation, sharp hairline joins, and gently bracketed serifs that taper to fine points. The capitals are stately and open, with generous internal spaces and a slightly calligraphic stress that shows most clearly in rounded forms like C, O, and G. Lowercase proportions lean traditional with a compact x-height, long ascenders, and crisp, carefully finished terminals; details such as the two‑storey g and the ear on g add a bookish, classical texture. Numerals appear oldstyle with varying heights and descenders, keeping the overall rhythm lively and text-oriented.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs well for display typography in magazines, cultural programs, and refined branding, especially when paired with ample whitespace and high-quality reproduction.
The tone is formal and literary, combining quiet authority with a delicate, elegant finish. Its high-contrast rhythm and fine terminals suggest a print-minded sensibility, suited to cultured, editorial settings rather than utilitarian UI work.
The design appears intended as a conventional, text-first serif with elevated contrast and careful finishing, aiming to evoke traditional publishing and a polished, authoritative tone while remaining readable in continuous text.
Round characters show smooth, even curvature with subtle swelling on the thick strokes, while diagonals (V, W, Y) are slender and crisp. The italic is not shown; the available forms here read as a composed roman with consistent spacing and a clean, uncluttered texture in paragraphs.
