A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, gently tapered strokes, and modest stroke modulation. The letterforms show a humanist, oldstyle influence: round bowls with open apertures, a slightly diagonal stress, and a smooth, even rhythm across text. Proportions are moderately generous, with comfortable spacing and clear differentiation between characters; numerals appear lining with traditional serif details and a slightly calligraphic finish.
Well suited to extended reading in books, articles, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also fits formal communications and academic or institutional materials that benefit from a familiar, trustworthy typographic voice.
The overall tone is classical and literary, conveying restraint and credibility rather than display-driven personality. Its quiet detailing and measured rhythm feel established and editorial, with a subtle warmth that keeps it from appearing cold or overly mechanical.
Likely designed as a general-purpose text serif that prioritizes comfortable readability and a traditional typographic color. The design balances familiar book-seriffed construction with subtle humanist shaping to stay versatile across print-like and on-screen text settings.
Terminals and joins read as softly modeled rather than rigid, and the serif shaping remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The italic-like flicks are minimal in this upright style, but the forms retain a gentle, pen-informed flavor that supports long-form reading.
