A serif typeface with subtly flared, bracketed terminals and a gently calligraphic stroke modulation. Stems read firm and upright while curves show careful tension, producing a sculpted, slightly engraved feel rather than a purely geometric one. Counters are moderately open and the overall color stays even in text, with crisp joins and pointed interior angles in letters like V/W and k. Uppercase forms are stately and well-proportioned, while the lowercase combines sturdy verticals with rounded bowls and tapered finishing strokes.
Well-suited to book typography and long-form editorial where a traditional serif voice is desired, and it also performs confidently in magazine headlines and subheads. The distinctive flared terminals make it a strong option for branding and packaging that needs a classic, crafted impression.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone with an editorial polish. Its flared endings and moderated contrast add warmth and formality, suggesting tradition and credibility without feeling overly ornate.
Likely designed to blend traditional serif proportions with flared, calligraphic finishing to achieve a readable text rhythm and a refined, contemporary-classic personality. The goal appears to be versatility across text and display while retaining a recognizable, crafted signature.
The glyph set shown emphasizes sharp, clean terminals and a consistent rhythm, with numerals that match the serifed, slightly calligraphic construction of the letters.
