A refined text serif with gently bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, readable rhythm. The capitals are stately and slightly expansive, with crisp, tapered terminals on letters like E, F, T, and a softly modeled, classical construction in curves such as C, G, and S. Lowercase forms show open counters and a calm texture, with a two-storey a and g, a clear ear on g, and a compact, controlled join structure in n, m, and h. Numerals appear oldstyle, with varied heights and flowing curves, reinforcing a traditional text-oriented personality.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, and editorial typography where a stable, classical serif voice is needed. It can also serve headings and subheads in magazines or academic and professional documents, pairing cleanly with neutral sans companions for hierarchy.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, evoking editorial and literary settings rather than display spectacle. Its modest contrast and careful serif shaping convey seriousness and credibility, with a quiet elegance suited to long-form reading.
Likely designed as a conventional, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes readability and a familiar classic tone. The restrained contrast, bracketed serifs, and oldstyle numerals suggest an emphasis on comfortable continuous reading with a traditionally literary character.
The face maintains consistent serif treatment across uppercase and lowercase, with clean diagonals (V, W, Y) and confident curved transitions (O, Q, 8, 9). Spacing in the sample text suggests a comfortable, open color that remains even across mixed-case passages and punctuation.
