A compact, oldstyle serif with clearly bracketed serifs and noticeably modulated strokes. The letterforms show tapered joins and subtly calligraphic shaping, with sturdy verticals and refined hairlines in curves and terminals. Capitals are broad and stately with crisp, slightly flared finishing strokes, while lowercase maintains a tight rhythm and relatively small internal counters. Numerals and punctuation follow the same sculpted, traditional construction, keeping a consistent texture across sizes.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also serve for chapter titles, pull quotes, and formal headings, especially when a classic, authoritative voice is needed.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, with a reserved formality that feels established and trustworthy. Its tapered details and traditional proportions add a faintly historic, academic flavor without tipping into ornament.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable serif with traditional proportions and calligraphic modulation, aiming for a dependable text face that feels established and refined across paragraphs and headings.
Stroke endings often resolve into wedge-like terminals, and curves carry a gentle diagonal stress that contributes to an oldstyle color. The spacing reads slightly tight and the forms are compact, producing a dense, even typographic gray that holds together well in continuous text.
