This serif has an oldstyle foundation with gently bracketed serifs and a moderate, readable contrast between thick and thin strokes. Curves are smoothly drawn and slightly calligraphic in feel, while stems remain steady and upright. Proportions are on the compact side with relatively narrow letterforms and tight interior spaces, giving the text a composed, economical rhythm. The italics are not shown; the roman includes details like a double-storey “g” and “a,” a softly cupped “t,” and numerals that align comfortably with the text color rather than calling attention to themselves.
It is well suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine body copy where a classic serif voice and consistent text color are important. It can also serve in literary or heritage-oriented branding when a conventional, polished serif presence is desired.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, suggesting printed books, established institutions, and considered editorial typography. It feels refined without being austere, with a warm, humanist cadence that reads as familiar and trustworthy.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional text serif with subtle calligraphic influence—aimed at comfortable readability and a timeless, print-rooted character rather than display eccentricity.
In running text, the font maintains an even color and steady baseline, with smooth joins and restrained terminals that avoid sharpness. Uppercase forms feel formal and slightly condensed, while lowercase round letters keep a calm, open rhythm that supports continuous reading.
