A wide, upright serif with a restrained, mostly even stroke impression that opens into subtly flared terminals. Serifs are small and tapered rather than blocky, giving many strokes an incised, carved finish at the ends. Counters are generous and round (notably in O/C/G), while horizontals and joins stay crisp and clean for a steady text rhythm. Lowercase forms are straightforward and readable, with a single-storey a and g and compact, bracket-like finishing on stems; numerals follow the same broad proportions and open shapes.
Well-suited to editorial typography, book interiors, and magazine headlines where a traditional serif voice is desired with a slightly sculpted edge. Its broad letterforms and open counters make it effective for titling, pull quotes, and branding systems that aim for heritage, culture, or institutional credibility.
The overall tone is classical and editorial, with a calm authority that feels rooted in traditional print typography. The flared endings add a touch of refinement and monument-like dignity without becoming ornate, keeping the voice composed and literary.
The design appears intended to blend dependable readability with an elevated, engraved-like finish, using flared terminals to suggest craftsmanship and tradition while remaining clean and contemporary in structure.
Spacing and proportions favor openness and width, producing a spacious texture in running text. The design balances round forms with sharp, slightly chiseled terminals, creating a consistent, polished presence at both display and text sizes.
