A classic serif with bracketed, slightly flared serifs and softly tapered strokes that suggest broad-nib influence rather than rigid geometry. Curves are full and rounded, with modest contrast and a steady, readable rhythm in text. Terminals often end in subtle teardrop or wedge-like shapes, and counters stay open, giving the letters a sturdy but not heavy presence. Capitals feel stately and well-proportioned, while the lowercase maintains a comfortable, familiar texture with a gently modeled skeleton.
Well-suited to extended reading in books, editorial layouts, and other text-forward applications where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also work effectively for headings and pull quotes when a traditional, cultivated voice is needed, and for packaging or branding that benefits from a heritage-leaning tone without extreme ornament.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, with a warm, human presence that feels established rather than flashy. It reads as confident and trustworthy, with just enough calligraphic movement to keep long passages from feeling mechanical.
Likely designed to deliver comfortable readability with an old-style, calligraphic sensibility—balancing traditional serif cues with a warm, slightly animated texture for continuous text.
Numerals appear old-style in spirit, with varied widths and some gently cupped or curved terminals that harmonize with the text face. The overall spacing and stroke modulation produce a slightly lively, hand-informed color in paragraph settings.
