This serif has an expansive horizontal footprint with broad, rounded bowls and a steady, even rhythm across words. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation with smooth transitions and gently bracketed serifs that flare rather than snap sharply. The lowercase is compactly proportioned with a traditional structure, while the capitals feel stately and wide, giving lines a spacious texture. Curves (notably in O/C/G and the numerals) are open and even, and terminals tend to finish with subtle serifed or tapered endings rather than blunt cuts.
It suits long-form editorial settings where a classic serif texture is desired, including book interiors and magazine typography. The generous width also lends itself to headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding where a traditional, cultivated impression is appropriate.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, leaning toward bookish authority rather than high-fashion sharpness. Its wide stance and measured contrast create a confident, readable voice that feels established, editorial, and quietly elegant.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, highly readable serif with a distinctive wide set and smooth, bracketed detailing, balancing classical letterform cues with a more spacious, contemporary page presence.
In the sample text, the wide letterforms and open counters produce airy word shapes and a relaxed color on the page. The figures echo the same broad, rounded construction, helping numerals blend naturally with running text rather than standing apart.
