A delicate serif with crisp, bracketed terminals and moderate stroke modulation. The letterforms are built on classical proportions with generous interior space, rounded bowls, and a steady vertical rhythm that stays even in extended text. Serifs are small but clearly articulated, with tapered joins and a clean, slightly calligraphic finishing in curves and diagonals. Lowercase forms read openly at text sizes, while capitals are stately and well-spaced; numerals appear oldstyle, with varying heights and a smoothly drawn 3 and 8.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, and other long-form editorial typography where a light, classical serif texture is desired. It can also work for formal stationery and understated invitations, especially when paired with ample leading and margins.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, conveying restraint and credibility rather than display flair. Its light, poised drawing gives a sense of refinement and calm, suitable for editorial voices that want elegance without overt ornament.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes comfortable reading and a familiar, classical voice. Its fine serifs and balanced modulation suggest an emphasis on elegance and typographic neutrality for content-driven settings.
The italic is not shown; the sample indicates consistent spacing and an unobtrusive texture across mixed-case lines. Ascenders are relatively tall and the forms avoid heavy ball terminals, keeping the impression crisp and understated.
