A sturdy slab-serif with clearly bracketed serifs and predominantly flat-ended terminals that give the letterforms a firm, anchored feel. Strokes are relatively even with gentle modulation, and curves are clean and controlled, producing a calm, readable rhythm. Proportions are fairly traditional, with generous interior counters (notably in O, C, and e) and straightforward, well-balanced capitals; the lowercase shows familiar text-face structures such as a two-storey a and a two-storey g. Numerals follow the same measured construction, with open shapes and consistent serif treatment for a cohesive texture in running text.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a steady texture and clear word shapes matter. It can also work effectively for headings, pull quotes, and navigation in print or digital contexts where a confident slab-serif voice is desired without heavy contrast.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, suggesting a dependable, literary voice. Its slab presence adds a quiet authority—more pragmatic than decorative—evoking editorial and academic contexts without feeling overly ornate.
Likely designed to provide a classic text serif feel reinforced by slab weight and crisp terminals, aiming for robust readability and a dependable, institutional character. The familiar lowercase structures and measured proportions suggest an emphasis on clarity and consistency in paragraphs and multi-page settings.
Spacing appears even and comfortable in the sample paragraphs, supporting continuous reading. The serifs read as substantial and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping maintain a stable baseline and a clear typographic color.
