A serif typeface with gently flared stroke endings and small, bracketed serifs that create a subtle calligraphic rhythm. Strokes appear mostly even in weight but swell slightly toward terminals, producing a soft, sculpted texture rather than a strictly mechanical monoline. Bowls are generous and round, with a moderate contrast between curved and straight segments and carefully tapered joins. The capitals feel stately and traditional, while the lowercase maintains clear counters and a steady reading line, with distinctive curved terminals on letters like a, c, e, and t.
Works well for editorial layouts, book typography, and magazine use where a warm serif texture is desired. The distinctive flared terminals also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding applications that benefit from a traditional yet lively serif voice.
The overall tone is classical and literary, with an understated elegance that reads as editorial and cultivated. Its flared detailing and softened terminals add warmth and a faintly historical voice without becoming ornate or old-fashioned. The impression is confident and composed, suited to text that wants to feel established and credible.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif proportions with flared, calligraphic finishing to add warmth and personality while remaining highly readable. It aims for a versatile, literary texture that can carry both display lines and continuous reading without relying on heavy ornamentation.
The figures are oldstyle-leaning in feel, with rounded shapes and softly tapered ends that harmonize with the lowercase. Diagonals (such as in V, W, X, and y) carry the same subtle swelling toward terminals, keeping contrast and emphasis consistent across the set.
