An upright serif with a distinctly hand-shaped, old-style construction. Strokes show clear contrast with tapered joins and subtly uneven terminals that create a lightly textured, organic color on the page. Serifs are small and bracketed, often flaring into wedge-like feet, and curves have a slightly softened, drawn quality rather than hard geometric precision. Proportions are moderately narrow with tall capitals and a compact, readable lowercase; numerals share the same tapered, slightly irregular finish.
Works well for longer reading in literary or editorial settings where a traditional voice with a bit of texture is desirable. It also suits packaging, labels, and poster headlines that benefit from an old-world, hand-finished feel without relying on heavy ornament.
The overall tone feels literary and slightly rustic—more storybook and print-classical than corporate or technical. Its gentle irregularity and tapered details add warmth and personality, suggesting craft and tradition rather than strict formality.
The design appears intended to evoke classic serif typography with a subtle, hand-rendered twist—maintaining familiar text proportions and readability while introducing tapered strokes and irregular terminals to create warmth and character.
In text, the face maintains consistent rhythm while letting small idiosyncrasies (notably in curved letters and terminals) add character. Round forms like O and Q read robustly, while letters such as g and y introduce lively, distinctive shapes that increase the decorative flavor without becoming overly ornamental.
