This is a conventional serif with bracketed serifs and a gently calligraphic, oldstyle construction. Strokes show clear but moderate thick–thin modulation, with tapered terminals and softly flared entry/exit strokes rather than blunt cuts. Proportions lean toward wide, roomy capitals with rounded bowls and open counters, while the lowercase sits on a relatively low x-height with pronounced ascenders and descenders that create a vertical, bookish rhythm. Numerals appear lining-style with similar modulation and understated shaping, maintaining an even, readable texture in text.
It suits long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture and comfortable word shapes are desired. The wide, dignified capitals and clear modulation also work well for titles, pull quotes, and heritage-leaning branding applications that benefit from a traditional tone.
The overall tone is classic and literary, evoking traditional book typography and editorial seriousness. Its softened serifs and moderate modulation add a refined, slightly historic warmth without becoming ornamental, keeping the voice formal and composed.
The design appears intended as a dependable, classical text serif that balances elegance with everyday readability. Its moderate contrast, bracketed serifs, and low x-height suggest a focus on traditional typographic color and a historically informed rhythm for continuous text.
Round letters (like O and Q) emphasize smooth, near-oval curves, and the Q’s tail is sweeping and prominent, adding a subtle signature detail. The italic is not shown; the roman maintains steady spacing and consistent stroke behavior across both display sizes and text settings.
