A flared serif with gently tapering stems that swell into wedge-like, bracketed endings, giving the letters a subtly carved, calligraphic feel. Strokes are fairly even in weight with restrained contrast, and curves are smooth and controlled rather than geometric. The lowercase shows a moderate x-height and open counters, while ascenders and capitals feel tall and stately. Overall spacing and rhythm read steady and bookish, with distinctive, softly pointed terminals that add character without becoming decorative.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also serve refined branding, cultural materials, and formal stationery, offering a traditional voice with subtle individuality.
The tone is traditional and literary, suggesting established publishing and classical typography rather than contemporary minimalism. Its flared endings add a touch of warmth and dignity, creating an impression that is formal yet approachable.
Likely designed to deliver a timeless reading experience with added personality through flared, wedge-like terminals. The intention appears to balance classic serif authority with a gently calligraphic texture that remains comfortable in continuous text.
The numerals appear oldstyle (text figures), blending smoothly with lowercase texture in running text. The overall silhouette stays crisp and upright, with a consistent, slightly calligraphic modulation that keeps paragraphs lively without looking busy.
