A sturdy serif with bracketed, slightly flared serifs and a gently modulated stroke that stays comfortable for text. The letters show generous counters and open apertures, with round forms leaning toward an oldstyle rhythm and a subtly organic curve to joins and terminals. Uppercase proportions feel classical and stable, while the lowercase has a compact, readable structure with clear differentiation between similar forms. Numerals appear as oldstyle figures with varying heights and extenders, reinforcing a traditional text complexion.
Well suited to editorial layouts, book interiors, and long-form reading where a traditional serif texture is desired. The heavier color and clear shapes also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and brand applications that benefit from a classic, authoritative voice.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, conveying seriousness and trust. Its robust presence reads confident and slightly old-world, suitable for content that aims to feel established and credible rather than trendy.
The design appears intended as a conventional, dependable serif for text and display, prioritizing legibility and a familiar typographic cadence. The oldstyle-style numerals and bracketed detailing suggest an aim toward literary and editorial settings with a timeless character.
Serifs are consistently bracketed with a calm, even cadence across the alphabet, and the set maintains strong clarity at display sizes in the sample. The face has enough texture and weight to hold up in headings while keeping the counters open enough to avoid feeling clogged.
