A serif text face with gently flared, bracketed serifs and softly tapered stroke endings that give the forms a subtle calligraphic pull. Curves are open and round, with moderate apertures and a steady, readable rhythm across words. The lowercase shows traditional proportions with clear ascenders/descenders, while capitals are stately and slightly wide in stance, with clean, confident joins. Numerals read as oldstyle figures, with varying heights and a more bookish, text-oriented texture than lining figures.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where an even text texture and traditional serif detailing support comfortable reading. It can also serve for formal communications, cultural or academic branding, and titles/subheads when a classic, cultivated voice is desired.
The overall tone feels classical and bookish, with a quiet elegance that suggests editorial credibility rather than display exuberance. Its flared terminals add a hint of warmth and craft, keeping the page color refined without becoming sharp or austere.
The design appears intended as a dependable, tradition-leaning serif for continuous text, combining familiar oldstyle structure with flared finishing details to add warmth and character while maintaining composure on the page.
The italic is not shown, and the impression is shaped by a consistent, upright roman with careful serif transitions and smooth modulation through curves. In paragraph settings, spacing appears balanced and the texture stays even, helping longer lines feel composed and calm.
