A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke contrast, and sturdy, slightly condensed proportions in capitals balanced by more open lowercase forms. Curves are smooth and controlled, terminals are clean, and the overall rhythm is even, supporting continuous reading. The lowercase shows clear differentiation and steady vertical stress, with a straightforward, unembellished approach to joins and bowls. Numerals align with the text color and feel traditional, with clear shapes and restrained detailing.
Well-suited to body text in books, essays, and editorial layouts where an even texture and familiar serif forms support long-form reading. It can also serve comfortably for headings and subheads in traditional print and digital publishing contexts that call for a classic typographic voice.
The tone is classic and bookish, with a composed, authoritative presence. It reads as familiar and editorial rather than expressive, lending a sense of tradition and credibility without drawing attention to itself.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose text serif: conservative, highly readable, and visually balanced, prioritizing dependable line color and conventional letterforms for editorial and literary use.
Across both the grid and paragraph setting, the font maintains a consistent color and spacing, producing a stable line texture at larger sizes. The serifs are not heavy or blocky, but firmly shaped, giving the letters a crisp edge while keeping the overall feel warm and conventional.
