This serif typeface shows bracketed serifs and a calligraphic, oldstyle construction with noticeable stroke modulation. Curves are smooth and slightly oblique in stress, with tapered joins and carefully shaped terminals that keep counters open. Uppercase forms feel stately and moderately wide, while the lowercase uses traditional proportions with a clear two-storey a and g, a modestly angled e crossbar, and a compact, sturdy x that supports text setting. Figures appear lining with clear contrast and rounded bowls, matching the letterforms’ rhythm and color.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also serve in magazine typography and refined brand applications such as institutions, cultural organizations, or packaging that benefits from a traditional voice.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, evoking printed book typography and editorial credibility. Its contrast and shaping lend a refined, slightly formal voice that feels established rather than trendy, suitable for content that benefits from authority and polish.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes comfortable readability and a familiar print tradition, using controlled contrast and bracketed serifs to create a dignified, polished page color.
In text, the spacing reads even and calm, producing a consistent typographic color. The italic is not shown; the roman includes distinct, softly tapered serifs and subtly varied widths that add liveliness without disrupting readability.
