A readable serif with gently flared stroke endings and softly bracketed terminals that give the forms a sculpted, pen-influenced feel. Curves are smooth and controlled, with moderate modulation and clear, open counters; the overall color stays even across text. Capitals are stately and fairly wide with crisp joins, while lowercase forms keep a steady rhythm and conventional proportions. Numerals are straightforward and lining in appearance, matching the text’s restrained, bookish texture.
Performs well for body text in books, magazines, and other editorial layouts where an even reading rhythm matters. It can also support headings and pull quotes, especially in print or high-resolution digital settings where the flared terminals remain crisp.
The tone is calm and traditional, conveying credibility and polish without feeling ornate. Its subtle flare and softened terminals add a quietly human, literary character suited to long-form reading.
Likely designed as a general-purpose serif for comfortable reading, balancing classic proportions with subtle flared terminals to add warmth and distinction. The intent appears to be a dependable text face that feels traditional yet slightly individualized.
The sample text shows stable spacing and a consistent baseline, producing a clean paragraph texture. Distinctive details like the flared feet on stems and the slightly calligraphic curvature in letters such as a, g, and y give it personality while remaining conservative.
