A conventional text serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and gently modulated strokes. Curves show a subtle calligraphic influence, with softly flared terminals and a steady, even rhythm across the alphabet. Proportions are moderately wide with open counters, and the lowercase shows a compact but comfortable x-height with clear ascenders and descenders. Numerals appear oldstyle (text figures), blending smoothly with running text rather than standing rigidly on the baseline.
Well suited for body copy in books, essays, and editorial layouts where sustained readability matters. It can also support formal collateral such as reports, programs, and institutional communications, and scales comfortably to display sizes for headlines that want a traditional serif voice.
The font reads as traditional and bookish, projecting a calm, established tone. Its restrained contrast and familiar shapes feel authoritative without becoming ornate, making it well suited to serious, text-forward communication.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose reading serif: familiar letterforms, moderate modulation, and balanced proportions prioritize clarity and a timeless tone over stylistic novelty.
In the sample text, the face maintains consistent color and spacing at large sizes, with clear word shapes and sturdy verticals. The italics are not shown; the impression here is defined by upright roman forms and their understated, slightly humanist detailing.
