A serif text face with subtly flared stroke endings and wedge-like terminals that suggest a calligraphic skeleton. Strokes show a controlled, moderate contrast with smooth transitions into the serifs, giving letters a sculpted, slightly tapered look rather than sharply bracketed slabs. Proportions are traditional and bookish, with generous curves (notably in rounded capitals) and clear internal counters; spacing reads even and composed in running text. Lowercase forms are steady and readable, with a modestly sized x-height and distinct entry/exit strokes that add rhythm without becoming ornamental.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books and essays, as well as editorial design where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also works for headlines, pull quotes, and literary or cultural titles that benefit from a refined, classic texture.
The overall tone is classical and literary, conveying refinement and quiet authority. Its flared terminals add a humanist, slightly handwritten warmth while remaining formal enough for serious editorial settings.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif readability with a flared, calligraphic finish that adds character and hierarchy. It aims for a polished, dependable text color while offering enough distinctive terminal shaping to stand out in editorial typography.
The figures and capitals feel designed for display within text—clean, high-contrast shapes at larger sizes while maintaining a measured, text-friendly cadence. Terminals on letters like C, E, S, and a show consistent wedge treatment, reinforcing a cohesive, chiseled texture across lines.
