A conventional serif with bracketed, wedge-like terminals and gently modulated strokes. Curves are smooth and fairly open, with a steady rhythm and compact, text-oriented proportions. The lowercase shows traditional oldstyle influence (notably in the two-storey a and the curved, ear-like details), while capitals stay restrained and evenly weighted. Numerals follow the same serifed, slightly calligraphic construction, keeping a consistent texture across mixed content.
Well-suited to book typography, editorial layouts, and other long-form reading where a stable, familiar serif texture is desired. It also fits academic and institutional materials—reports, essays, and printed communications—where a formal but approachable voice is appropriate.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, suggesting printed-page authority rather than display exuberance. Its calm modulation and familiar serif forms read as trustworthy and institutional, with a subtle historic warmth.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text face: balanced proportions, conventional letterforms, and moderate stroke modulation aimed at producing an even, readable page color across paragraphs.
Serifs are clearly articulated without becoming heavy, and joins are softened by bracketing, which helps maintain an even color in paragraphs. Counters remain reasonably open for a classic text serif, supporting clarity in continuous reading.
