A robust serif with bracketed serifs and softly tapered terminals, mixing broad, rounded bowls with gently modulated strokes. The letterforms show a traditional, slightly oldstyle structure: open counters, rounded joins, and a steady horizontal rhythm that reads comfortably in text. Uppercase proportions are solid and authoritative, while the lowercase features generous apertures and pronounced entry/exit strokes; the italic is not shown, and the roman maintains an even, confident texture. Numerals appear lining and sturdy, with clear differentiation and rounded finishing details.
Well-suited to editorial typography, book interiors, and long-form reading where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also performs convincingly for headlines, pull quotes, and brand or packaging systems that benefit from a classic, established tone.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, projecting a sense of heritage and reliability. Its weight and softened detailing give it a warm, established voice rather than a sharp, high-fashion feel, making it come across as formal but approachable.
The design appears aimed at a conventional text serif with a sturdy, contemporary-bold presence: traditional proportions and serifing for familiarity, combined with enough weight and rounding to stay legible and impactful in modern editorial layouts.
Serif shapes are consistently bracketed and slightly flared, helping dense settings avoid brittleness. The sample text shows strong color at larger sizes, with clear word shapes and a traditional, print-oriented presence.
