A traditional serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and gently modulated strokes that keep contrast moderate and even. The letterforms show an oldstyle influence: rounded bowls, subtly angled stress, and slightly flared terminals that soften the overall texture. Uppercase proportions feel balanced and dignified, with clear serif transitions and confident verticals; lowercase forms are compact and readable with a steady rhythm across words. Numerals are lining and proportional in feel, with curved, slightly calligraphic shaping that matches the text face.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture supports comfort and clarity. It also works for institutional or cultural branding that benefits from a traditional, trustworthy typographic presence, as well as headings where a classic serif tone is desired without high-contrast drama.
The tone is classic and literary, suggesting printed books, editorial seriousness, and a restrained sense of elegance. Its modest contrast and softly sculpted details add warmth without becoming decorative, giving it a dependable, established voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes readability and an established, print-oriented character. Its moderated contrast and oldstyle-leaning details aim to deliver a composed, timeless look across both display sizes and continuous text.
The face maintains consistent weight through joins and serifs, producing a smooth text color in paragraphs. Curves and terminals tend toward rounded, slightly flared finishes, which helps prevent the design from feeling overly sharp or mechanical.
