A refined serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and gently flared stroke endings. The letterforms show moderated contrast with a subtle diagonal stress, giving rounds a slightly calligraphic feel rather than a purely geometric construction. Proportions are balanced and readable, with generous inner counters and clear joins; the lowercase includes a two-storey “a” and a single-storey “g”, plus softly curved terminals that keep text color even. Capitals are crisp and stately, with classic shapes (notably a broad, open “C” and a sharp-legged “R”), and numerals follow the same traditional serifed structure for consistent rhythm in text and headings.
Well-suited to body copy in books, long-form reading, and editorial layouts where a calm, familiar serif voice is desired. It can also support formal documents and content-forward branding that benefits from a traditional, trustworthy typographic presence.
The overall tone is traditional and cultivated, evoking book typography and established editorial design. It feels authoritative without being severe, with enough warmth in the curves and bracketing to stay inviting in longer passages.
The font appears designed as a conventional text serif optimized for comfortable reading and a composed page texture, combining classical proportions with restrained contrast and carefully bracketed serifs to remain clear and dependable across extended text.
The design maintains a steady baseline and consistent serif treatment across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, producing a smooth, continuous texture in paragraph settings. Curves and diagonals are drawn with restraint, avoiding decorative excess while preserving a subtle handwritten influence in the stress and terminal shaping.
