A traditional text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and crisp, well-defined terminals. Proportions are compact with a relatively small x-height and tall ascenders, giving lines a slightly elevated, bookish rhythm. Curves are smoothly drawn (notably in C, G, O, and Q) and joins feel quietly calligraphic rather than geometric. Spacing appears even and controlled, supporting continuous reading while keeping a relatively narrow overall footprint.
Well-suited to body text in books, essays, and long-form editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for academic or institutional materials, captions, and pull quotes, and it has enough refinement for conservative branding and packaging that wants a classic typographic foundation.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone—polished and conservative without feeling stiff. Its restrained contrast and tidy serifs suggest seriousness and credibility, suited to editorial voices and traditional publishing. Overall it reads as calm, established, and quietly authoritative.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional serif for continuous reading, prioritizing familiar letterforms, even texture, and a composed rhythm. Details like bracketed serifs and oldstyle numerals reinforce a publishing-oriented palette aimed at comfortable, traditional typography.
The lowercase shows a two-storey a and g with compact counters, and the roman italic is not present in the samples. Numerals appear oldstyle (text figures) with varied heights and some descenders, blending naturally into running text. The wide, traditional capitals pair with the short x-height to create a distinctly book-oriented color on the page.
