This serif typeface features gently flared stems that transition into crisp, bracketed serifs, creating a subtly sculpted, calligraphic feel without becoming decorative. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation with clean joins and sharp apexes on letters like A, V, W, and Y. The lowercase has a traditional structure with a two-storey a and g, compact apertures, and a steady rhythm that reads evenly in text. Numerals appear proportioned for running text, with clear differentiation and restrained detailing that matches the letterforms.
Well suited to editorial typography, book work, and long-form reading where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also performs nicely for display headlines, pull quotes, and identity systems that need a classic, cultivated tone without heavy ornamentation.
The overall tone is classical and literary, with a composed, editorial voice. Its flared shaping and controlled contrast add a refined, slightly historical texture that feels authoritative rather than ornate.
The typeface appears designed to offer a contemporary, usable text-and-display serif built on classical proportions, using flared stroke endings to add warmth and distinction while preserving clarity and disciplined spacing.
The design balances narrow-ish proportions with open counters, keeping text from feeling cramped at size. Curves are smooth and deliberate, and terminals tend to finish with small wedges or subtle flares rather than blunt cuts, contributing to a cohesive, engraved-like crispness in larger settings.
