A refined serif with gently flared stroke endings and softly bracketed serifs that give stems a subtle, calligraphic swell. Curves are smooth and moderately round, with open counters and a calm, even rhythm across text. Capitals feel formal and balanced, while the lowercase shows readable, traditional proportions with a two-storey “a,” a looped descender on “g,” and clear differentiation between similar forms. Figures are lining and proportional, matching the text tone with restrained detailing and consistent weight distribution.
Well-suited to editorial design, book typography, and long-form reading where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for headings, institutional or cultural branding, and formal printed materials that benefit from a composed, classical presence.
The overall tone is classical and bookish, conveying restraint and credibility rather than display flamboyance. Its flared endings and mild organic modulation add warmth, keeping it from feeling rigid or mechanical. The impression is editorial and cultivated—appropriate for contexts that benefit from tradition and seriousness.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif structure with subtly flared, humanist stroke behavior, producing a readable text face with a refined, slightly calligraphic finish. It aims for versatility in editorial settings while maintaining a distinct, heritage-leaning character.
Serif and terminal treatment is noticeable without becoming sharp, producing a slightly inked, tapered feel at joins and stroke ends. Spacing appears comfortable in running text, and the letterforms prioritize clarity with generous apertures and straightforward, conventional shapes.
