A classic serif with bracketed wedge-like serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, readable rhythm. The capitals are proportioned and slightly compact with crisp terminals, while the lowercase shows traditional forms and a workmanlike texture. Curves are smooth and controlled (not calligraphically exaggerated), and joins stay clean, producing an even color in paragraph settings. Numerals appear lining and fairly traditional, with clear, open counters and straightforward construction.
Well-suited for long-form reading contexts such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a stable, conventional serif texture is desired. It also fits formal documents and institutional materials that benefit from a familiar, trustworthy typographic voice.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, suggesting a reliable, editorial voice rather than a decorative one. It feels familiar and bookish, leaning toward an academic or literary sensibility with a touch of formality.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose text serif: conservative in structure, comfortable at reading sizes, and tuned for consistent paragraph color. Its details prioritize clarity and tradition over stylistic novelty, making it a dependable choice for everyday typography.
Distinctive oldstyle cues show up in the lowercase (including a two-storey “g”), paired with pragmatic, legible shapes and conservative detailing. The type maintains consistent spacing and sturdy serifs that help it hold up in continuous text and mixed-case settings.
