A crisp serif with subtly flared stroke endings that read like wedge-shaped serifs rather than blunt slabs. The design shows moderate thick–thin modulation with smooth transitions and a controlled, slightly calligraphic rhythm. Counters are fairly open and the joins are clean, giving the letters a sharp, print-like definition. Capitals feel stately and compact, while the lowercase keeps a steady, readable texture with modest extenders and clear character separation.
It performs well for editorial typography—books, long-form articles, and literary or academic layouts—where a traditional serif texture is desired without excessive ornament. The flared endings also give it presence for headlines and pull quotes, and it can lend a credible, established tone to branding and identity work that needs a classic serif without heaviness.
The overall tone is formal and bookish, with an editorial polish that suggests tradition without looking overly ornate. Its sharp terminals and disciplined spacing lend a serious, institutional voice suited to authoritative messaging. The texture stays composed and restrained, creating a confident, classical impression.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif readability with a slightly sharper, flared terminal treatment, creating a distinctive but still conservative text voice. It prioritizes a stable page rhythm and clear forms, aiming for versatility across text and display sizes while retaining a recognizable, refined character.
The sample text shows an even color across lines with clear word shapes, helped by decisive serifs and consistent modulation. Numerals match the text face with similarly flared endings, keeping a cohesive typographic voice between letters and figures.
