A refined serif with gently flared stroke endings and softly bracketed serifs. The design shows a calligraphic undercurrent: rounded joins, slightly tapered strokes, and a measured contrast that stays even across the alphabet. Capitals feel open and well-proportioned with smooth curves (notably in C, G, and O), while the lowercase keeps a steady rhythm with clear counters and restrained terminals. Details like the two-storey a and g, the modest ear on g, and the clean, compact figures create a cohesive, text-forward texture that remains crisp at larger sizes.
Well-suited to book typography, essays, and editorial layouts where a steady text color and familiar serif structure support sustained reading. It also performs nicely for magazine subheads, pull quotes, and refined brand typography that needs classic credibility without heavy ornamentation.
The overall tone is literary and composed, balancing traditional book-seriffiness with a subtle, contemporary polish. It reads as intelligent and trustworthy rather than ornate, lending a quiet authority to paragraphs and headings alike.
Likely designed as a versatile reading serif that nods to traditional forms while using flared, tapered endings to keep the page color lively and graceful. The goal appears to be comfortable paragraph setting with enough character to stand out in curated editorial work.
Round letters maintain generous internal space, helping the face stay legible in dense setting. Diacritics and punctuation in the sample text appear understated and consistent with the tapered, flared finishing seen on stems and arms.
