A conventional serif with sturdy, weighty stems and clearly bracketed serifs that soften joins while keeping edges crisp. Stroke contrast is noticeable but controlled, with heavier verticals and lighter connecting strokes creating a classic book-face rhythm. Counters are generally open, and the lowercase shows a moderate x-height with pronounced ascenders and descenders, supporting readability at text sizes. Curves are full and slightly squarish in places, and several glyphs feature rounded/ball-like terminals, adding warmth without becoming decorative.
Well-suited to book and magazine typography, especially for body text where its open counters and steady rhythm maintain clarity. The strong weight and classic forms also make it effective for section heads, pull quotes, and titles. It can support branding and printed collateral that needs a traditional, trustworthy typographic voice.
The overall tone feels traditional and authoritative, with an editorial seriousness suited to long-form reading and institutional communication. Its sturdy color on the page conveys confidence and stability, while the rounded terminals keep the voice from feeling overly sharp or austere.
The design intent appears to be a familiar, workhorse text serif with enough weight and contrast to read confidently in print while retaining classic proportions and detailing. It prioritizes a dependable reading texture and conventional letterforms that feel at home in editorial and formal contexts.
The figures shown are oldstyle with varying heights, blending naturally into running text. Spacing appears even and measured, producing a dense, consistent texture that holds up well in paragraphs and headline settings alike.
