This serif face shows subtly flared stroke endings with soft, bracketed transitions into the serifs, giving stems a gently sculpted, calligraphic feel. Contrast is moderate and the curves are smooth and open, with slightly tapered joins and a lively, humanist rhythm rather than rigid, mechanical geometry. Capitals are stately and compact, while the lowercase keeps clear, rounded bowls and modest extenders; overall spacing reads even and comfortable in continuous text.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also serve for headlines, pull quotes, and refined brand systems that want tradition with a slightly more organic, flared finish.
The tone is traditional and bookish, with a warm, cultivated elegance. Its flared terminals add a touch of hand-made character that feels dignified rather than ornate, producing a calm, confident voice suitable for serious reading.
The design appears intended to blend conventional serif readability with the subtle expressiveness of flared terminals, creating a typeface that feels established and literary while still carrying a gentle handwritten influence.
Figures and capitals appear designed to sit cleanly in text with restrained detailing, while distinctive flaring at terminals provides personality without heavy ornament. The overall silhouette stays crisp at display sizes, but the moderated contrast and open forms support extended reading as well.
