A traditional text serif with bracketed, gently flared serifs and softly modulated strokes. The letterforms show moderate contrast and a rounded, slightly organic construction, with smooth joins and tapered terminals that keep the texture even in paragraphs. Uppercase shapes are steady and conventional, while the lowercase features a two-storey a and g, open counters, and a modestly angled stress that reads comfortably at text sizes. Numerals appear oldstyle, with varied heights and descenders that blend naturally with running text.
Well suited to book interiors, essays, journals, and other long-form editorial layouts where sustained readability matters. It can also serve for headings, pull quotes, and formal print materials that benefit from a classic serif voice, especially when oldstyle numerals are desired in running text.
The overall tone is classic and literary, evoking established publishing and editorial typography. Its calm rhythm and familiar proportions feel authoritative without becoming rigid, making it suitable for serious, content-forward settings.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional serif for continuous reading, balancing traditional detailing with a smooth, even paragraph texture. Its restrained contrast and bracketed serifs suggest a focus on clarity and comfort in extended text rather than display dramatics.
In the sample text, spacing and stroke endings produce a soft, continuous color on the page rather than a sharp, high-contrast sparkle. The capitals hold their weight well for headings, while the oldstyle numerals and traditional punctuation support a cohesive book-typographic feel.
