This serif has a traditional, oldstyle-informed structure with clearly bracketed serifs and noticeable stroke modulation. Curves are full and open, with a steady, upright rhythm and moderate-to-wide proportions that give capitals and numerals a spacious footprint. Terminals often finish with subtle wedge-like shaping, and the joins and serifs read cleanly, producing a crisp texture in paragraphs. Lowercase forms show a relatively small x-height with prominent ascenders, while counters and apertures remain generous for comfortable word shapes.
It fits well for long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired, and it can also carry section titles and pull quotes thanks to its crisp contrast. The wide set and strong capitals make it useful for magazine display, packaging, and identity work that benefits from a traditional, established voice.
The overall tone feels classical and literary, with a composed, authoritative presence suited to established editorial typography. Its high-contrast detailing and refined serifs add a touch of formality, while the rounded bowls keep the voice approachable rather than austere.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a classic, bookish color, combining calligraphic modulation with sturdy bracketed serifs for clarity and authority in continuous reading and editorial settings.
In text, the contrast and sharp serif finishing create a lively page color and clear baseline definition. Numerals appear traditionally styled and sturdy, and the punctuation and uppercase shapes maintain a consistent, conventional book-face character.
