A conventional serif with bracketed wedge-like serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, readable rhythm. The proportions feel balanced and slightly compact, with sturdy verticals, rounded bowls, and clean joins that keep counters open. Capitals are stately and evenly weighted, while the lowercase shows traditional text-serif structure, including a two-storey “g” and “a,” a modestly angled ear, and a tidy, upright “e.” Numerals appear lining and proportionally consistent, with clear differentiation and solid baseline alignment.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where an even typographic color matters. It can also support academic, legal, or corporate documents that benefit from a conventional, trustworthy serif voice, and it scales comfortably for headings when a traditional tone is desired.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, leaning toward an editorial and institutional feel rather than display theatrics. It conveys authority and familiarity, suggesting printed tradition—measured, calm, and dependable.
The design appears intended as a familiar, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes readability and typographic neutrality, providing a traditional voice for continuous reading and formal communication.
The serifs read as gently flared and well-bracketed rather than slabby, giving a firm footprint without heaviness. Curves and terminals remain restrained and clean, keeping the texture even in paragraph settings and maintaining clarity in mixed-case text.
