This serif shows softly bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and gently tapered terminals that suggest broad‑nib influence. The capitals are steady and classical with a slightly organic rhythm, while the lowercase brings more motion through angled entry strokes, subtly cupped joins, and a mildly italic-like slant in some forms. Counters are open and rounded, and spacing feels even but not rigid, giving text a textured, human cadence rather than a mechanical grid. Figures appear old-style in character, with curving forms and varied widths that align with the face’s traditional, text-oriented construction.
It suits body copy for books, essays, and editorial layouts where a warm serif texture is desirable. It also works well for literary headings, pull quotes, and branding that benefits from a classic, human feel without looking overly formal.
Overall it feels literary and approachable—traditional without being stiff. The mild calligraphic inflection adds warmth and a handmade quality, making the page feel inviting and slightly expressive while still remaining composed.
The design appears intended to balance traditional readability with a subtle calligraphic personality—prioritizing comfortable text performance while preserving distinctive, hand-informed details in terminals and serifs.
In the sample text, the face maintains a consistent color and readable flow at paragraph sizes, with distinctive, slightly lively letterforms that create a gentle typographic “sparkle.” The mix of disciplined capitals and more animated lowercase gives it a personable voice suited to extended reading as well as display lines.
