A serifed text face with moderate stroke contrast and softly flared terminals that broaden at the ends of stems, creating a calligraphic “inked” impression without becoming ornate. Proportions are balanced and classical, with round, open bowls and a steady rhythm in text. Serifs and terminals tend to be tapered and slightly bracketed, and curves transition smoothly into stems, producing a refined, print-like texture at paragraph sizes.
Well suited to editorial typography such as books, essays, magazines, and long articles where a classic serif texture is desirable. It can also support brand or institutional communications that need a conservative, credible tone, and it works for headings when a refined, traditional feel is preferred over sharp modernity.
This font conveys a calm, literary tone with a subtly historic, bookish character. Its gentle flare and moderated contrast give it a quietly formal, trustworthy voice rather than a loud or trendy one. Overall it feels traditional and composed, with just enough personality to read as crafted.
The design appears intended for comfortable continuous reading with a traditional serif voice. The flared stroke endings and measured contrast aim to add warmth and elegance while maintaining clarity and an even page color. It seems tuned to feel at home in long-form settings rather than display-only work.
The numerals and capitals maintain the same restrained, flared-serif language, helping mixed text and figures feel cohesive. In sample text the face holds a smooth rhythm with clear counters and a stable baseline, producing an even, readable gray at larger paragraph sizes.
