This typeface presents a serifed, flared construction with subtly widening stroke terminals that read like gentle wedge serifs rather than abrupt slabs. Curves are smooth and generously open, with a calm rhythm and moderate stroke modulation that stays consistent across the alphabet. Uppercase forms feel stately and balanced, with broad bowls and clear interior counters, while the lowercase shows traditional proportions and a steady, bookish texture. Numerals are old-style in feel, with varied heights and flowing curves that align with the text’s calligraphic undercurrent.
It is well suited to book and long-form editorial typography where a classic serif voice and steady readability are desired. The distinctive flared terminals also make it a strong option for magazine headlines, section openers, and identity work that aims for tradition with a lightly calligraphic edge.
The overall tone is classical and literary, projecting a composed, cultivated voice rather than something technical or playful. Its flared endings add warmth and a hint of handwritten influence, keeping the color on the page elegant and inviting. The effect is confident and formal without becoming rigid.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif proportions with flared, tapering terminals to create a refined text face that stays lively on the page. It emphasizes clarity and an even reading rhythm while offering enough character for display use in titles and branding.
In text, the spacing and counters produce an even, readable paragraph color, and the flared terminals help maintain clarity at joins and stroke endings. Capitals have a dignified presence suitable for titling, while the lowercase maintains a smooth, continuous texture for longer reading.
