A conventional serif with slender, carefully tapered strokes and bracketed serifs that read cleanly at text sizes. Curves are smooth and measured, with moderate thick–thin modulation and an overall even rhythm across lines of text. Capitals are stately with restrained details, while the lowercase shows a traditional book-face structure with open apertures, a two-storey “a,” and compact, balanced counters. Numerals are proportional and elegant, matching the text color with subtle modulation rather than heavy impact.
Well-suited to book typography, magazines, and other editorial settings where a refined serif texture supports extended reading. It can also serve in understated branding and headings when a classic, cultivated voice is desired without heavy ornamentation.
The overall tone is composed and literary, projecting a sense of tradition and editorial polish. Its delicacy and calm rhythm feel suited to considered, long-form reading rather than loud display.
The design appears intended as a dependable, classic text serif that prioritizes readability and a polished page color. Its measured contrast and restrained detailing suggest an aim toward timelessness and editorial versatility.
Serifs and terminals stay understated, giving the face a tidy, disciplined texture. The italic is not shown; the sample emphasizes a consistent roman voice with generous whitespace and a refined, slightly calligraphic finish in curves and joins.
