A serif text face with visibly calligraphic construction and gently uneven contours that mimic inked or printed texture. Strokes show moderate contrast with softened transitions, and the serifs are bracketed and slightly flared rather than sharp or geometric. Proportions feel traditional and bookish, with compact lowercase and a relatively modest x-height; capitals are sturdy and slightly varied in width, contributing to a lively rhythm. Bowls and terminals are subtly irregular, giving the outlines an organic, hand-worn finish while maintaining clear, readable forms.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional, human tone is desired. It also works effectively for historical or heritage-themed branding, packaging, and display settings that benefit from a lightly distressed, letterpress-like character.
The overall tone is antique and literary, evoking early printing and hand-set type. Its slight roughness and warm modulation add a tactile, human presence that feels historical and craft-driven rather than polished or corporate.
Likely designed to capture the warmth of old-style serif typography with visible calligraphic influence, prioritizing a lively texture and period flavor while keeping legibility strong in continuous text.
Spacing and color read as moderately dense in text, with a steady baseline and a consistent, slightly textured edge that becomes more noticeable at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same old-style sensibility, with curved forms and modest stroke modulation that blend naturally with the lowercase.
