This serif typeface shows sculpted, flared stroke endings and gently bracketed serifs, with moderate contrast and a steady, upright rhythm. Curves are full and slightly oval, while terminals often taper into pointed or beak-like details that give strokes a carved, calligraphic finish. Uppercase forms feel stately and well-proportioned; lowercase includes traditional, oldstyle-like construction with a double-storey “a” and “g,” and a compact, readable texture in text. Figures appear lining and serifed, with noticeable curvature and angled finishing strokes that match the letterforms’ tapered detailing.
Well-suited for book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine work where a classic serif texture is desired. The distinctive flared terminals also make it effective for headlines, titling, and branding applications that benefit from a crafted, traditional character.
The overall tone is classical and bookish, with a refined, slightly humanistic warmth rather than a hard, mechanical feel. Its flared detailing adds a subtle sense of craft and tradition, lending the face an editorial, literary voice suited to high-credibility communication.
The font appears designed to blend traditional serif readability with expressive, flared stroke endings that add personality without overwhelming text setting. It aims for a timeless, editorial presence that can move between comfortable paragraph use and confident display roles.
The design leans on pronounced terminal shaping—especially in letters like C, S, and the diagonals—creating distinctive silhouettes at display sizes while maintaining an even, composed color in paragraphs. The wide, open counters in O/Q and the confident serifs help keep the texture clear in running text.
