A restrained serif with gently flared stroke endings and a subtly calligraphic construction. Stems stay fairly even in thickness, while terminals broaden into small wedges that read as soft, integrated serifs rather than sharp slabs. Proportions are balanced and slightly traditional, with rounded forms that stay open and clear; the capitals feel poised and spacious, and the lowercase maintains an even rhythm with unobtrusive joinery. Figures are straightforward and readable, matching the text tone with modest flare and clean curves.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and other long-form reading contexts where a subtle serif texture helps guide the eye. It can also serve refined branding, packaging, and headings when a classic, cultured tone is desired without high-contrast drama.
The overall tone is classical and bookish, with a calm, literary presence. Its soft flaring and understated shaping add warmth and a faintly historical flavor without becoming ornate, giving it a refined but approachable voice.
The font appears designed to deliver comfortable readability with a traditional serif voice, using flared terminals to introduce warmth and character while keeping the overall structure disciplined and versatile.
The design leans on consistent flare at stroke ends to create texture in running text, producing a gentle, lively sparkle rather than stark contrast. Capitals sit confidently for titling, while the lowercase remains steady for longer passages, suggesting a text-first temperament.
