A serif text face with gently flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that soften joins and corners. Strokes show a moderate thick–thin relationship, with smooth curves and slightly tapered diagonals that keep the rhythm lively without becoming sharp. Proportions feel traditional and bookish, with open internal spaces and comfortable spacing that supports continuous reading. The lowercase forms are steady and straightforward, while capitals carry a calm, stately presence with subtle flare at terminals and a restrained, consistent finish.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts, where its moderate contrast and open counters maintain clarity at text sizes. It also works for formal headlines, pull quotes, and institutional materials that benefit from a traditional, refined voice.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting editorial polish and quiet authority rather than display flamboyance. Subtle flare and moderate contrast add warmth and a lightly calligraphic dignity, making the font feel established, trustworthy, and composed.
The design appears intended as a comfortable, versatile serif for reading-focused typography, blending traditional proportions with gently flared terminals to add warmth and character while preserving a disciplined, professional texture.
Round letters stay clean and generously open, and the numerals follow the same restrained, old-style serif logic for a cohesive page color. The design favors smooth transitions and controlled details, yielding a stable texture in paragraphs and a dignified silhouette in titles.
