A classic text serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and gently modulated strokes. The shapes show a subtle calligraphic influence: rounded bowls are smooth and open, joins are clean, and terminals often finish with a slight taper or flare. Proportions are balanced with moderate ascenders and descenders, and the overall rhythm reads evenly in continuous text. Numerals appear oldstyle with varying heights and a more flowing, bookish cadence than lining figures.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture is desired. It also fits magazine features, academic or cultural publishing, and other typographic settings that benefit from a classical, polished voice.
The font conveys a traditional, book-centered tone—measured, cultured, and quietly authoritative. Its details feel refined rather than decorative, supporting a sense of trust and permanence typical of established editorial typography.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional reading face: emphasizing continuity, legibility, and a timeless serif character, while adding just enough calligraphic modulation to keep paragraphs lively and comfortable.
Uppercase forms are stately and calm, with restrained contrast and crisp serif transitions. Lowercase characters maintain clear differentiation (notably in forms like a, g, and t), helping preserve legibility while keeping an elegant, slightly humanist texture. The sample text shows steady color and comfortable spacing, with punctuation and capitals integrating smoothly into long passages.
