This typeface is a traditional serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and moderate stroke contrast. Curves show a gentle diagonal stress, and the joins are smoothly transitioned rather than sharply chiseled. Proportions are balanced with generous interior counters, a calm rhythm in text, and slightly tapered stems that keep the color even across lines. The lowercase includes a two-storey “a” and “g,” compact ascenders/descenders, and sturdy, readable forms; numerals appear oldstyle with varying heights and a slightly calligraphic feel.
Well suited to book typography, essays, magazines, and other editorial contexts where a stable serif texture supports extended reading. It can also serve effectively in academic or institutional materials and in brand systems that want a traditional, dependable typographic voice.
The overall tone is classic and literary, projecting a composed, bookish confidence. It feels traditional and authoritative without becoming ornate, lending a familiar editorial voice suited to long-form reading.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes clarity and comfortable reading while retaining a subtly humanist, print-oriented character. Its moderate contrast and bracketed serifs aim for versatility across headings and body text without drawing attention to idiosyncratic details.
In the sample text, spacing and word shapes remain steady, producing a consistent texture at display sizes. Capitals are stately and restrained, and details like the ear on the “g” and the angled terminals on characters such as “y” add a subtle humanist warmth.
