A workmanlike slab serif with sturdy, mostly uniform strokes and softly bracketed serifs. Curves are generously rounded and counters stay open, giving letters a clear, even texture in running text. The lowercase shows single-storey forms for a and g, a round i/j dot, and simple, unshowy joins; capitals are straightforward with broad proportions and calm vertical rhythm. Numerals are clear and traditional, with a plain, readable construction and consistent serif treatment.
Well suited to body copy in books, articles, and other editorial settings where an even, readable texture is important. It can also serve UI and documentation typography thanks to its clear letterforms and straightforward numerals, and it holds up for moderate-size headings where a sturdy serif presence is desired.
The overall tone is dependable and approachable rather than flashy. It reads as literary and familiar—comfortable for long-form content—while the slab serifs add a subtle sense of solidity and authority.
The font appears designed as a general-purpose slab serif focused on clarity and consistency in text, offering a solid serif voice without ornamental distraction.
Spacing appears balanced and moderate, supporting continuous paragraphs without looking compressed. The design avoids sharp spikes or extreme modulation, favoring smooth curves and stable geometry that keep the color of text consistent.
