A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, a sturdy vertical stress, and moderate stroke modulation. The letterforms are generously proportioned with open counters and a steady, even color in text. Terminals and joins show a slightly calligraphic influence—visible in the curved strokes of C, G, S, and the tapered arm/leg shaping—while remaining controlled and print-oriented. Numerals and capitals feel stately and balanced, with clear differentiation and a slightly formal rhythm.
Well-suited to long-form reading contexts such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also support headings and pull quotes when you want a composed, established look rather than a contemporary display feel.
The overall tone is classic and literary, evoking traditional book typography and institutional printing. It reads as trustworthy and composed, with a mild old-world warmth rather than a sharply modern or technical attitude.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes readability and typographic familiarity, combining classical proportions with clean, practical detailing for continuous reading.
In running text, the face maintains a stable cadence and legibility, with sturdy serifs that help guide the eye along the line. The sample shows confident punctuation and strong caps that can carry headings without looking overly decorative.
