This serif shows a traditional, book-oriented construction with bracketed serifs, gently modulated strokes, and a steady baseline rhythm. Capitals are proportioned with restrained width and crisp terminals, while the lowercase features two-storey a and g, a compact e with a horizontal crossbar, and a strong, slightly calligraphic flow in curved joins. Counters are open and the overall color is even, with clear differentiation between thick and thin strokes without looking sharp or brittle. Numerals are lining and serifed, matching the text style and maintaining consistent spacing and weight.
Well suited to extended reading in books, essays, reports, and editorial layouts where steady texture and conventional forms support comprehension. It also fits formal print pieces such as programs, invitations, and institutional communications that benefit from a traditional serif voice.
The tone is classic and literary, recalling conventional page typography rather than display styling. Its restrained contrast and familiar letterforms convey authority and calm, making it feel dependable, editorial, and quietly formal.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes readability, familiar proportions, and a composed page color. It aims to blend into long-form typography while still offering subtle, refined shaping in the serifs and curves.
Distinctive details include a Q with a flowing tail that curls inward, a J with a pronounced lower hook, and a lowercase y with a curved, descending tail. The italic is not shown; all samples appear roman and consistently upright with a measured, traditional texture.
