A serif text face with subtly flared, bracketed serifs and gently modulated strokes that suggest broad-nib influence without becoming high-contrast. Curves are round and open, with smooth joins and a steady rhythm across words. The lowercase has a generous x-height and sturdy, slightly tapered stems; counters are comfortably sized, supporting clarity at text sizes. Numerals and capitals feel solid and traditional, with understated detailing rather than sharp, modern cutoffs.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and magazine features where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also support academic or institutional materials, and works for brand communications that aim for a traditional, trustworthy voice.
The overall tone is traditional and dependable, with a bookish, editorial character. Its restrained modulation and softened serifing convey authority and familiarity, leaning toward established, institutional typography rather than overt display styling.
Likely designed as a versatile serif for comfortable text setting, combining classic proportions with a slightly sculpted, flared finish to keep paragraphs lively without sacrificing sobriety.
The italic is not shown; the presented style maintains a consistent, upright texture with even spacing and a calm color in paragraphs. The flaring at stroke ends is subtle but persistent, giving the face a gently sculpted finish rather than crisp, straight terminals.
