This typeface is a serif with subtly flared, bracketed stroke endings and a calm, traditional rhythm. Strokes show gentle modulation that suggests a broad-nib or engraved influence rather than rigid geometric construction. The lowercase is compact and sturdy with rounded joins, a single-storey “g,” and softly tapered terminals; the “e” has a small eye and a restrained crossbar. Capitals are stately with slightly sculpted curves (notably in C, G, and S) and crisp, wedge-like finishing that reads as flared rather than slabbed. Numerals appear lining and proportioned to match the text color, with classic shapes such as an open “4” and a curved “2.”
Well-suited for long-form reading such as books and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also support refined branding, packaging, and invitations that benefit from a classic, cultivated tone, especially at text to subhead sizes.
The overall tone is bookish and composed, with an understated elegance that feels rooted in editorial and literary typography. Its flared endings and mild calligraphic shaping add warmth and a human touch, while the steady proportions keep it appropriately formal.
The design appears intended to bridge classic text-serifs with a slightly more sculpted, flared finish, aiming for high readability while adding a gentle, humanist personality. Its shapes prioritize an even reading texture and a familiar, literary presence over overt stylistic eccentricity.
The design maintains a consistent color in paragraphs, with terminals and joins that remain smooth at larger sizes. The distinctive single-storey “g” and the lively, slightly calligraphic “y” and “f” add character without pushing the face into display novelty.
