A conventional serif with bracketed serifs and subtly flared terminals, showing a gently calligraphic stroke modulation rather than rigid geometry. Proportions feel traditionally bookish: capitals are stately and slightly narrow, while lowercase forms are open and readable with moderate ascenders and descenders. Curves (C, G, O, e) carry a smooth, slightly organic contour, and several joins and terminals have a faint pen-like swelling that softens the overall texture. Numerals are old-style–leaning in spirit with varied silhouettes and a lively rhythm, matching the texty color of the letters.
Well suited to book typography, editorial layouts, and other long-form reading where a familiar serif rhythm is preferred. It can also serve for scholarly materials, literary branding, and pull quotes where a traditional voice and comfortable texture are desired.
The tone is classic and literary, with a quiet warmth that reads as editorial rather than formal display. Its subtle hand influence adds approachability, suggesting print tradition and careful craft without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text face with a hint of humanist warmth—prioritizing readability and an even page texture while retaining subtle, characterful detailing in terminals and curves.
In text, the spacing produces an even, calm gray, while small irregularities in curvature and terminal shaping keep it from feeling mechanical. The italic is not shown; the sample demonstrates a steady roman suited to continuous reading.
