A text-oriented serif with subtly flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than mechanical. Strokes show moderate contrast with a gently calligraphic stress, producing clear thick–thin rhythm without looking delicate. Proportions are balanced and slightly generous, with open counters and smooth curves; joins and terminals are clean and controlled. Uppercase forms read stately and stable, while the lowercase maintains a steady texture suited to continuous reading, with a two-storey “g” and a compact, readable “e.” Numerals are proportional and harmonize with the letterforms, keeping similar contrast and serif treatment.
Well suited for body copy in books, longform editorial, and printed materials where a familiar serif voice improves readability. It can also support identities and packaging that want a classic, cultivated tone, and it scales nicely to display sizes for headings thanks to its crisp contrast and distinctive flared terminals.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a calm authority that suggests traditional print typography. The flared terminals add a touch of warmth and craft, keeping the design from feeling overly formal while still reading as refined and established.
Likely designed as a versatile reading serif that blends traditional proportions with subtly flared, calligraphic finishing to add character without sacrificing clarity. The aim appears to be dependable text performance with a gently distinctive, crafted texture.
In text setting the face builds an even gray value with clear word shapes and comfortable spacing. The capitals have a slightly monumental presence, and the italics are not shown; the upright roman carries the personality through its tapering strokes and softly shaped serifs.
