This serif features gently flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that broaden into subtle wedge shapes, giving stems a softly sculpted finish rather than blunt slabs. Proportions feel balanced and traditional, with moderate stroke modulation and clear vertical stress in rounded forms. Capitals are steady and slightly compact with crisp joins, while lowercase shows a readable rhythm with open counters and a rounded, two-storey “a.” Numerals appear oldstyle in feel, with varied heights and generous curves that harmonize with the text forms.
It suits long-form reading contexts such as books, essays, and editorial layouts, where its clear counters and steady rhythm maintain comfortable legibility. The flared terminals also make it effective for refined headings, literary covers, and brand identities that want a traditional voice with a crafted edge.
The overall tone is bookish and composed, projecting a sense of tradition and editorial authority. Its flared details add a quiet warmth and craft nuance, keeping the page color lively without becoming ornate.
The font appears designed to deliver a classic serif reading experience while differentiating itself through flared endings and gently calligraphic shaping. The goal seems to be a dependable, text-forward serif with enough distinctive terminal treatment to carry well into titles and display applications.
The design maintains a consistent texture in paragraph setting, with smooth curves and restrained detailing that supports continuous reading. The flaring at terminals is noticeable in both straight and diagonal strokes, lending a subtly engraved, classical finish at display sizes.
