This serif shows a classical, oldstyle-inspired construction with smoothly bracketed serifs and gently modulated strokes. Curves are round and open, with a steady rhythm and clear internal counters, while terminals often finish in subtle, tapered hooks. Uppercase proportions feel stately and slightly condensed in presence, with sharp apexes on forms like A and V and a well-defined, calligraphic spine on S. Lowercase maintains an even color with modest extenders; the two-storey a and g, plus the angled ear on g and the curved tail of y, reinforce a traditional book-face character.
It suits book typography, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice and comfortable reading rhythm are desired. The crisp capitals and elegant curves also make it appropriate for refined branding, cultural institutions, and formal announcements or invitations.
The overall tone is poised and literary, suggesting careful typesetting and long-form reading. It feels formal without being rigid, balancing warmth from its calligraphic details with a restrained, editorial polish.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional, highly readable serif with classic proportions and subtle calligraphic cues, offering a dependable voice for text while retaining enough personality for headings and pull quotes.
The numerals follow the same oldstyle sensibility, with noticeable curvature and varied silhouettes that read smoothly in text. The Q’s sweeping tail and the slightly flared, angled serifs contribute to a confident, classical personality that remains legible at larger text sizes and in display settings.
