This is a conventional text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, even rhythm across both cases. Capitals are stately and relatively broad, with clear classical proportions and sturdy verticals. Lowercase forms are compact and readable, with a two-storey “a” and “g,” a small ear on “g,” and generally rounded bowls that stay firm rather than calligraphic. Numerals follow oldstyle/lining-mixed behavior typical of book serifs, with the “3” showing a pointed lower terminal and the “1” carrying a strong top serif, reinforcing a print-oriented texture.
It fits extended reading contexts such as books, essays, and editorial layouts, where a familiar serif voice and consistent texture support readability. It can also serve well for headings, pull quotes, and institutional materials that benefit from a formal, established typographic character.
The tone is traditional and composed, evoking editorial and literary typography rather than display novelty. Its sturdy serifs and measured contrast communicate authority and familiarity, suitable for content that aims to feel established and trustworthy.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose serif for continuous text, balancing traditional detailing with clear, robust letterforms. Its proportions and moderate modulation aim to produce an even paragraph color and a familiar, print-classic presence.
Serif terminals are clean and slightly tapered, with consistent bracketing that helps maintain smooth text color in paragraphs. The sample text shows stable spacing and a calm horizontal flow, with capitals that sit confidently without overpowering the lowercase.
