A graceful serif with subtly flared terminals and softly bracketed serifs, giving strokes a gently tapered, calligraphic finish. The design shows moderate stroke modulation with smooth transitions and rounded joins, producing an even, polished texture in text. Proportions are fairly traditional: capitals are stately and open, while lowercase forms keep clear counters and straightforward construction for continuous reading. Numerals follow the same restrained, bookish rhythm, with balanced widths and calm curves.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a refined serif texture is desired. It also fits formal branding, cultural institutions, and printed materials that benefit from a traditional, trustworthy voice, especially in headlines paired with smaller text in the same style.
The overall tone is classical and literary, suggesting tradition, credibility, and measured elegance. Its flared endings add a hint of warmth and humanistic movement without becoming ornamental, keeping the voice composed and professional.
The design appears intended to provide a classic reading serif with a subtle flared, calligraphic influence—prioritizing legibility and an elegant page color while adding understated personality through tapered terminals and gently shaped serifs.
In the text sample the spacing and sidebearings read comfortably, with a steady baseline rhythm and minimal eccentricity. Diagonal forms (like V, W, X, Y) feel clean and controlled, while round letters (O, C, G) maintain generous interior space that supports clarity at paragraph sizes.
