A refined serif with subtly flared stems and bracketed serifs that broaden gently into wedge-like endings. The stroke contrast is moderate, with smooth transitions and a calm, even color in text. Uppercase forms feel stately and balanced, while the lowercase shows readable, open apertures and well-defined bowls with a slightly calligraphic modulation. Numerals are proportioned to sit comfortably with the text, maintaining the same measured contrast and crisp terminal behavior.
Performs well in long-form reading—books, essays, reports, and editorial layouts—where its moderate contrast and open forms support sustained legibility. It also suits formal headings, institutional branding, and packaging or invitations that benefit from a classic serif tone without feeling overly ornate.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, projecting credibility and restraint rather than exuberance. Its controlled modulation and flared finishing details add a touch of warmth and heritage, giving text an editorial, established voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a timeless, text-forward serif with a subtle flared influence—adding character and warmth while keeping proportions and spacing disciplined for continuous reading.
Serifs are consistently shaped and softly bracketed, helping maintain flow in long passages. Curved letters show clean, confident arcs, and the design avoids extreme quirks, prioritizing clarity and steady rhythm across mixed-case settings.
