This serif presents sturdy, slightly tapered stems that swell subtly into flared, bracketed endings rather than crisp hairline serifs. Curves are generous and smoothly modeled, with moderate thick–thin movement that reads more calligraphic than mechanical. The lowercase shows open bowls and clear joins, with a rounded, readable rhythm and a traditional italic-free upright posture. Numerals and capitals sit solidly with broad, stable forms and gently softened corners, creating an even, bookish texture in paragraphs.
It suits long-form reading such as books and essays, where the open counters and moderate contrast help maintain clarity. The strong capitals also make it effective for editorial headings, pull quotes, and traditional branding that benefits from a classic serif presence.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, with a literary, print-forward voice. Its flared details and warm modeling suggest heritage and craft, lending a measured formality without feeling sharp or severe.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary take on a traditional serif with flared finishing, balancing readability with a subtly expressive, crafted terminal treatment. It prioritizes a stable text rhythm while offering enough character for prominent editorial display.
Stroke endings often resolve with small wedges or soft flares, which keeps edges from looking brittle at larger sizes. Spacing appears steady and comfortable in the text sample, supporting a consistent typographic color across lines.
