A serif typeface with distinctly flared, wedge-like terminals that broaden as strokes meet the baseline and cap line, giving letters a subtly calligraphic build. Strokes show moderate contrast with smoothly bracketed joins and gently tapered curves, producing a refined but not overly delicate texture. Proportions feel traditional: relatively compact lowercase with sturdy ascenders, rounded bowls, and a clear, open rhythm that holds together well in paragraph settings. Figures are lining and proportional, echoing the same flared finishing and moderate contrast seen in the letters.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for magazine headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or cultural branding that benefits from a classic yet slightly calligraphic presence.
The overall tone is literary and editorial, combining classical formality with a warm, humanist touch from the flared endings. It reads as composed and authoritative without feeling cold, suggesting an understated, bookish sophistication.
The design appears intended to bridge text practicality with an elegant, flared-serif signature, offering a classic page color and familiar proportions while adding personality through tapered terminals and subtly calligraphic stress.
Uppercase shapes lean toward stately, inscriptional manners, while the lowercase keeps a steady, even color with clear differentiation between similar forms. Terminals and serifs are more tapered than blocky, which helps the design feel crisp at display sizes while remaining composed in text.
