A flared serif with gently tapered strokes and subtly widening terminals that give stems a soft, calligraphic finish. Serifs are small and bracketed rather than blunt, with smooth transitions into the main strokes and rounded joins throughout. Curves are open and generous, producing spacious counters in letters like C, O, and e, while diagonals (V, W, X) remain crisp with controlled stroke modulation. The lowercase shows a steady rhythm with an even, readable texture; figures are similarly open and lightly stylized, with curved bottoms and tapered endings that match the letterforms.
This face suits editorial typography and long-form reading where a warm serif texture is desired, and it also works well for magazine headlines, pull quotes, and cultured branding. Its open counters and measured contrast help maintain clarity, while the flared terminals add personality for packaging or identity applications.
The overall tone is bookish and cultivated, balancing traditional serif formality with a friendlier, human touch. The flared endings and rounded shaping lend a slightly old-style, literary feel without becoming ornate or fussy.
The design appears intended to evoke a traditional serif voice with a softer, more human cadence, using flared stroke endings to suggest pen influence while keeping forms clean and contemporary enough for modern editorial use.
Spacing appears comfortable in text, and the shapes stay consistent between uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The design relies more on taper and flare than sharp hairline detailing, giving it a smooth, ink-like character at display sizes.
