This typeface is a serif design with subtly flared stroke endings that read as softened, wedge-like serifs rather than square slabs. Strokes show gentle modulation, with rounded joins and a consistent, calm rhythm across the alphabet. Uppercase forms are stately and open, with moderate proportions and clean inner counters; lowercase forms maintain clear structure with a two-storey “g” and “a,” and generally generous apertures. Numerals share the same tapered, slightly calligraphic construction, with smooth curves and light, neat terminals that keep the overall color even in text.
It suits long-form reading such as book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif voice is desired. The clear uppercase and graceful numerals also make it appropriate for headlines, pull quotes, and restrained branding that benefits from a traditional yet slightly calligraphic finish.
The overall tone feels literary and composed, evoking traditional book typography with a touch of handwritten warmth. Its flared endings and measured contrast add a refined, slightly old-style character that reads as cultured and trustworthy rather than flashy.
The design appears intended to bridge classic serif readability with the expressive nuance of flared, tapered terminals. It aims for a familiar editorial tone while adding subtle personality through stroke shaping and softened serifs.
In the text sample, the face holds together well at reading sizes, producing an even texture without looking rigid. The spacing appears balanced, and the combination of crisp serifs with softly tapered terminals gives the letters a distinctive, gently sculpted presence.
