An old-style serif with softly bracketed serifs, gently tapered strokes, and a subtle calligraphic rhythm. The letterforms show moderate modulation and a slightly organic, hand-influenced drawing, with open counters and smooth curves in rounds like C, O, and G. Serifs are refined rather than blunt, with occasional flared terminals and a calm, even color in text. Lowercase shapes are traditional and readable, with modest extenders and a small, neatly set dot on i and j.
Well suited to body text in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional, comfortable reading texture is desired. It can also work for academic materials, reports, and cultured branding that benefits from a classic serif voice without looking overly decorative.
The overall tone is classical and literary, conveying a quiet authority associated with traditional printing. Its warmth and restrained detailing feel scholarly and familiar, suitable for content-forward reading rather than overt display.
The design appears intended to provide a dependable, traditional reading experience with gentle calligraphic influence—prioritizing clarity, an even text color, and a historically informed serif structure.
The numerals and capitals maintain the same restrained, book-oriented character, with clear differentiation and consistent serif treatment. In continuous text, spacing and proportions create a steady rhythm that supports long-form readability while still offering a touch of personality through slightly varied stroke endings.
