A lively old-style serif with clearly bracketed serifs, softly tapered strokes, and modest contrast that reads as pen-influenced rather than geometric. Curves are generously rounded with slightly irregular, hand-led terminals, giving the letterforms a warm rhythm. Capitals are classical and open, while the lowercase shows a short x-height with prominent ascenders/descenders and varied stroke endings that add texture in continuous text. Numerals follow the same humanist logic, with subtle stroke modulation and traditional proportions.
Well-suited to editorial and book work where a traditional, readable serif with character is desired, especially for novels, essays, and long-form reading. It also fits heritage-leaning branding, artisanal packaging, and cultured event materials where a warm, classic voice is important. Larger sizes can showcase its calligraphic details in headings, pull quotes, and display lines.
The overall tone feels literary and slightly antiquarian—evoking book typography, fables, and traditional print. Its gentle irregularities and calligraphic hints keep it approachable and human, lending personality without becoming ornamental. The impression is cultured and conversational, suitable for designs aiming for warmth and narrative charm.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic old-style models with a visibly human hand, balancing traditional proportions and bracketed serifs with a slightly quirky, textured finish. It aims to provide a dependable text face that still carries personality and narrative warmth in both headings and continuous reading.
Texture increases at larger sizes where the tapered joins and terminal shapes become more apparent, while tighter settings may emphasize the short x-height and lively stroke endings. The serif treatment stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, supporting a cohesive page color.
