A serif typeface with gently flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that give stems a tapered, chiseled finish rather than blunt terminals. The contrast is moderate, with smooth transitions between thick and thin strokes and a calm, steady vertical stress. Proportions lean condensed in the caps and overall spacing feels controlled, while letterforms remain open and readable. Details like the curved arm of the “T,” the sculpted bowl joins, and the compact, slightly calligraphic lowercase create a rhythmic, editorial texture in continuous text.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, journals, and book interiors where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs effectively in headlines and titling, where the flared terminals and concise proportions create a distinctive, polished word shape. The design can support refined branding and packaging that benefits from a traditional, cultivated feel.
The tone is classical and bookish, projecting restraint and authority without feeling overly ornate. Its flared, pen-influenced finishes add a subtle humanist warmth, lending the font a poised, cultured character suited to serious or traditional contexts.
The design appears intended to reinterpret traditional serif construction through softly flared, calligraphic stroke endings, balancing formality with a touch of hand-made nuance. Its controlled contrast and compact proportions suggest a focus on creating a readable, authoritative text color that still carries personality in larger sizes.
Numerals are proportionate and text-friendly, matching the serif vocabulary with clean, tapered terminals. The italic is not shown; the sample demonstrates strong consistency between display-sized capitals and paragraph text, with an especially stately presence in headline settings.
