A refined serif with bracketed serifs and a gently calligraphic, oldstyle-leaning construction. Strokes show a measured contrast and smooth transitions, with softly flared terminals and a steady, bookish rhythm. Capitals are stately and relatively open, while lowercase forms are compact and readable, with a two-storey “g,” a moderate x-height, and clear counters. Numerals are elegant and traditional in feel, pairing smoothly with the text weight and maintaining consistent vertical stress across the set.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where an even text color and conventional letterforms support sustained legibility. It can also serve for refined headlines, pull quotes, and captions when a traditional, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone is classic and cultured, suggesting literary and editorial traditions rather than overt display. It feels calm, trustworthy, and quietly formal, with enough warmth in the curves and serifs to avoid a rigid, mechanical impression.
The design appears intended as a versatile, conventional text serif that balances traditional detailing with clean, dependable readability. Its measured contrast, bracketed serifs, and familiar lowercase structures suggest an emphasis on comfortable paragraph setting and an editorially appropriate voice.
Curves and joins are carefully moderated, giving the face a polished texture in paragraphs. The spacing and proportions produce an even grayscale at text sizes, while the sharper serifs and tapered diagonals add crispness in headings.
