An upright serif with subtly flared stroke endings and softly bracketed serifs that broaden from the stems rather than ending in abrupt terminals. The letters show moderate stroke modulation with smooth, calligraphic transitions and a steady, book-like rhythm. Proportions are balanced with a relatively generous x-height, open counters, and clear apertures; round forms are slightly oval and the overall color stays even in paragraph text. Numerals and capitals feel traditional and well-integrated, with crisp details and gently tapered joins.
Well-suited for book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine text where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve in display roles—chapter titles, pull quotes, and refined branding—where the flared details can read as distinctive without sacrificing clarity.
The tone is classical and literary, reading as composed and established rather than loud or trendy. The flared finishing gives it a slightly humanist, crafted feel that adds warmth to an otherwise formal, editorial voice.
Likely designed to modernize a classic serif model by combining traditional proportions with flared, calligraphy-informed finishing for a distinctive yet highly readable texture in continuous text.
The sample text shows strong readability at larger text sizes, with clean spacing and a stable baseline. Curved letters (like C, G, S) emphasize smooth, continuous stroke flow, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) retain sharpness without becoming spiky.
