A traditional serif with bracketed serifs and a distinctly calligraphic, oldstyle influence. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation and soft transitions into the serifs, giving letters a sculpted, ink-on-paper feel rather than a rigid, constructed one. Capitals are stately and open, with generous interior spaces and tapered terminals; the lowercase keeps a steady reading rhythm with rounded bowls and moderate ascender/descender presence. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with curved, flowing forms and delicate joins.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and literary publications, as well as magazine and newspaper-style editorial layouts where a classical voice is desired. It can also support formal branding, certificates, and invitation typography where elegant serif detailing is an asset.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a poised formality that suggests printed books and established editorial design. Its contrast and tapered detailing add refinement, while the rounded, humanist drawing keeps it approachable rather than stark.
The font appears designed to deliver a conventional, book-centric serif voice with a refined, high-contrast finish—prioritizing readable paragraph color while retaining the elegance associated with classic print type.
The design relies on graceful curves and subtle asymmetries (notably in bowls and diagonals) to create a lively texture in paragraphs. Hairline details and sharp points are present in places, so it reads especially well when given adequate size and print-like contrast.
