A traditional text serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and softly modulated strokes. Curves are round and open, with noticeable but not sharp contrast between thick and thin, giving the letters a steady, bookish rhythm. Uppercase forms feel balanced and slightly restrained, while lowercase shows a two-storey “a” and “g,” compact terminals, and a moderate, readable x-height. Numerals appear oldstyle with ascenders and descenders, contributing to a flowing, paragraph-friendly texture.
Well-suited to continuous reading in books, essays, reports, and magazine articles where a familiar, comfortable serif texture is preferred. It can also support formal headings and pull quotes when set with ample leading, maintaining clarity and a cultivated tone.
The overall tone is classic and literary, projecting authority without feeling austere. Its calligraphic undertone and gentle modulation give it a warm, established voice suited to long-form reading and editorial contexts.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional, dependable serif for extended text, prioritizing readability and a historically grounded feel over overt stylization.
Spacing and proportions create an even color in text, with clear counters and stable vertical stress. The serif treatment stays consistent across the set, and punctuation and capitals maintain a dignified, traditional presence in mixed-case settings.
