A serif typeface with gently flared, bracketed stroke endings and a moderate thick–thin rhythm. The capitals feel stately and open, with smooth curves and slightly tapered stems that widen into the serifs rather than terminating abruptly. Lowercase forms are compact and bookish, with rounded bowls, a two-storey “g,” and softly angled joins that suggest a calligraphic pen influence. Numerals include oldstyle figures (notably the 3, 5, 7, and 9), and overall spacing reads even and comfortable for continuous text.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books, editorial pages, and essays where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also support premium, heritage-leaning branding and packaging when set in larger sizes, especially where a warm, humanist serif presence is beneficial.
The overall tone is traditional and cultured, with a quiet elegance that reads more literary than corporate. Its flared endings and restrained contrast add warmth and tactility, giving text an established, trustworthy voice without feeling overly formal.
Likely designed to provide a readable, classic text face that blends traditional serif proportions with flared, gently calligraphic finishing. The aim appears to be an inviting page color and a refined voice that remains practical for extended reading.
Stroke terminals frequently broaden into subtle wedges, creating a lively edge at small details (especially in the diagonals and curved strokes). The italic is not shown; the sample emphasizes upright text with a steady, classic rhythm and clear word shapes.
