This typeface is a serif with subtly flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than mechanically appended. Strokes show moderate contrast with smooth, continuous transitions, producing crisp hairlines and sturdier verticals without becoming sharp or extreme. Proportions are balanced and bookish: capitals are stately with generous internal space, while lowercase forms read cleanly with rounded bowls, a compact ear and tail structure, and clear, open counters. Numerals align comfortably with the text rhythm and share the same controlled contrast and flared finishing.
It suits long-form editorial typography where an even texture and comfortable reading rhythm are needed, such as books, essays, and magazine layouts. The crisp capitals and composed contrast also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding that benefits from a classic serif voice.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, with a calm authority that suggests print heritage and careful typesetting. Its restrained contrast and softened, flaring terminals add warmth and tactility, keeping the impression refined rather than austere.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif proportions with subtly flared terminals to add warmth, sturdiness, and a crafted finish. It aims for versatility across text and display sizes, delivering a dependable paragraph color while preserving enough character for prominent titles.
Letterforms maintain a consistent axis and a steady baseline presence, creating an even color in paragraphs. The flared endings are most noticeable on vertical stems and at stroke terminals, where they provide a gentle widening that adds stability and a slightly inscriptional feel.
