This is a serif text face with subtly flared stroke endings and softly bracketed serifs. The letterforms show gentle modulation and smooth curves, with open apertures and generous inner counters that keep the texture airy. Capitals are broad and stable, while lowercase forms are straightforward and readable, with a two-storey “a” and “g” and compact, tidy joins. Numerals are lining and proportioned to sit comfortably alongside capitals, maintaining the same restrained, bookish rhythm.
It suits long-form reading such as books and essays, as well as magazine and editorial typography where a classic serif voice is desired. The clean, flared detailing also makes it appropriate for refined branding, headings, and formal printed materials like programs or invitations.
The overall tone is composed and traditional, with a measured, editorial polish. Its flared terminals add a faint calligraphic warmth without becoming decorative, giving the font a quietly authoritative, literary feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical serif: readable in continuous text, with a touch of flared, calligraphic character to add distinction while staying restrained and versatile.
Round letters (like O, C, and e) read smooth and evenly weighted, and the serifs tend toward tapered, wedge-like endings that help lines of text flow without sharp, high-contrast sparkle. Spacing appears balanced and slightly generous, supporting clear word shapes in paragraph settings.
