A serif typeface with bracketed, subtly flared stroke endings and a calm, bookish rhythm. The design shows moderate stroke modulation and slightly calligraphic influence, with diagonal stress in rounded letters and tapered joins that keep curves smooth. Capitals are well-proportioned and stately, with crisp terminals and balanced spacing; the lowercase has open apertures and rounded bowls that remain clear at text sizes. Numerals appear oldstyle (text) figures, mixing ascenders and descenders for a more literary texture in running copy.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif color is desired. It can also support institutional branding, invitations, and headings that benefit from a refined, classical voice without excessive contrast.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, evoking editorial tradition and printed-book typography. Its restrained contrast and softened flaring convey warmth and authority without feeling ornate or sharp.
The design appears intended to provide a dependable, text-forward serif with subtle flaring and calligraphic cues—aiming for comfortable readability and a timeless, literary character across both display lines and body copy.
Details like the angled cross-stroke on the e, the lively tail on Q, and the compact, sturdy serifs contribute to a readable texture that stays elegant in paragraphs. The italics are not shown; all samples appear upright.
