A conventional serif with bracketed, gently flared serifs and moderate stroke contrast. Curves show a subtle calligraphic stress, with round letters like O and C drawn on a slightly oval axis. Uppercase forms are sturdy and evenly proportioned, while the lowercase has a traditional book face rhythm with compact bowls and clear counters. Terminals often finish with soft wedges and occasional ball-like details, and the numerals appear oldstyle in feel, mixing ascenders and descenders for a text-oriented texture.
Well-suited to extended reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is expected. It also fits formal documents, academic materials, and reports that benefit from a composed, authoritative tone at typical text sizes.
The overall tone is classic and literary, projecting credibility and restraint rather than display exuberance. It reads as familiar and established, with a slightly warm, editorial presence suited to serious content.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif: familiar proportions, moderate contrast, and classic serif detailing aimed at comfortable readability and a timeless typographic voice.
In text, the face maintains a steady color and comfortable spacing, with clear differentiation among similar forms (notably i/j and u/v) and a straightforward, non-fussy punctuation style. The italics are not shown; the upright roman carries the primary personality.
