A serif with softly bracketed, slightly flared terminals and a gently calligraphic stroke logic. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation with rounded joins and subtle swelling where curves meet stems, giving the outlines an inked, hand-set feel rather than a crisp geometric one. The proportions are generously wide with open counters and steady spacing, while details like the angled crossbar on the A, the curved-leg R, and the distinctive Q tail add personality without breaking overall consistency. Numerals are similarly wide and smooth, with softened angles and traditional, readable forms.
Well suited to book typography, magazine/editorial layouts, and institutional or heritage-leaning branding where a classical serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively for display headlines and formal print pieces such as invitations or programs, where its tapered details and wide proportions can be appreciated.
The tone is traditional and literary, evoking printed pages and editorial typography, but with a mild decorative twist from its tapered serifs and lively terminals. It feels composed and authoritative rather than flashy, suggesting heritage and refinement while remaining approachable in continuous text.
The design appears intended to deliver a readable, old-style text serif foundation while injecting character through flared serifs, gentle tapering, and a few distinctive uppercase gestures. The goal seems to be a familiar classical impression with enough unique detailing to stand out in titles and pull quotes.
Uppercase forms carry a classical Roman structure, while the lowercase keeps a steady rhythm and clear word shapes in the sample text. Several glyphs show slightly idiosyncratic terminals and spur-like accents that create a distinctive texture at larger sizes and a subtly animated color in paragraphs.
