A light serif with gently flared, bracketed terminals and softly rounded joins. The strokes maintain a mostly even weight with minimal contrast, while subtle swelling at ends gives the outlines a tuned, slightly calligraphic finish. Proportions read on the broad side with generous interior space; rounds are smooth and open, and spacing appears relaxed for comfortable text setting. Several glyphs show distinctive serif treatments (notably on diagonals and cross-strokes), lending a mildly decorative texture without breaking overall consistency.
Well-suited to editorial and long-form reading contexts where a light, open serif can maintain clarity at moderate sizes. The distinctive terminal treatment also makes it effective for branding, packaging, and invitations that want a refined, slightly whimsical voice without sacrificing legibility.
The font conveys a calm, bookish tone with a faintly playful twist. Its softened serifs and open shapes feel approachable and slightly storybook, while the overall rhythm remains composed and traditional rather than loud or eccentric.
Likely designed to blend traditional serif readability with a softer, more characterful terminal language. The aim appears to be a versatile text face that feels familiar and cultured, while offering enough idiosyncratic detailing to stand out in display lines and titles.
Uppercase forms feel stately and clean, while the lowercase introduces more personality through curved terminals and a single-storey feel in places. Numerals match the text color closely, with rounded forms and restrained detailing that keeps them aligned with the face’s gentle, literary character.
