This typeface is a serif with sturdy, squared-off slab-like serifs that feel lightly bracketed into the stems. Strokes are relatively even with only a subtle modulation, producing a steady, readable texture and clear vertical emphasis. Proportions are balanced with moderate ascenders and descenders, open counters, and a straightforward, upright stance. The lowercase shows a traditional book face rhythm, while the numerals appear oldstyle (with varying heights and some descenders), reinforcing a classic text-centric palette.
It suits long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif voice is desired, and it can also serve well for section headings, pull quotes, and captions that benefit from a sturdy, traditional serif structure. The oldstyle numerals make it particularly comfortable in text-heavy contexts that include frequent figures.
The overall tone is editorial and bookish, with a composed, traditional presence that reads as reliable and slightly formal. Its slabby serifs add a touch of sturdiness and authority without becoming overtly heavy or decorative.
The design appears intended as a readable, tradition-forward slab serif for continuous text, combining robust serif construction with restrained stroke modulation to maintain a steady, familiar page texture.
Round letters maintain smooth curvature while staying anchored by firm serif terminals, giving lines of text a stable baseline. The sample paragraph shows an even color at text sizes, with clear word shapes and a calm, unforced cadence.
