A conventional text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke contrast, and a steady, bookish rhythm. The letterforms show softly tapered joins and a slightly calligraphic feel, with rounded bowls and open counters that keep paragraphs readable. Uppercase proportions are balanced and sturdy, while lowercase forms are compact and even, with clear, traditional shapes (two-storey a and g, a sturdy e, and a tall, narrow f). Numerals appear oldstyle, with varying heights and clear differentiation.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, articles, and essays, where a consistent serif texture and comfortable counters help maintain legibility. It also fits editorial layouts, academic documents, and other print-forward contexts that benefit from a traditional, authoritative voice.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, evoking traditional book typography and established print conventions. It feels composed and trustworthy rather than decorative, with enough warmth in the curves and serifs to avoid looking clinical.
Likely intended as a general-purpose text face that prioritizes familiar proportions, calm contrast, and a dependable reading rhythm. The inclusion of oldstyle numerals and conventional serif detailing suggests an emphasis on literary and editorial composition.
Spacing appears comfortable in running text, supporting smooth horizontal flow. The design reads confidently at larger sizes while retaining a familiar texture suited to sustained reading.
