A crisp serif with gently flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that soften joins without becoming heavy. Strokes show moderate contrast and a steady, upright axis, with smooth curves and clean, slightly tapered terminals on letters like C, S, and J. Proportions feel traditional with a balanced x-height, clear apertures, and comfortable spacing; the lowercase includes a two-storey g and compact, readable forms. Numerals are lining and well-proportioned, matching the text rhythm with restrained detailing.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as books, essays, and magazine features where a refined serif texture is desired. It can also support identity work, packaging, and formal collateral when used for headlines and short blocks that benefit from its flared, crafted finishing.
The overall tone is traditional and polished, with a quiet authority that reads as editorial and literary. Its flared finishing gives a subtle calligraphic warmth, keeping the texture elegant rather than stark.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary, readable serif with classic proportions, using flared terminals and moderate contrast to add sophistication without sacrificing text performance. It balances traditional bookish cues with a clean, modern consistency for versatile, polished typesetting.
In text, the face maintains an even color and consistent rhythm, with capitals that feel dignified and slightly narrow in presence compared to the generous round letters. Curved letters stay smooth and open, helping long passages remain calm and legible while still looking tailored.
