A light, upright serif with softly bracketed, slab-like serifs and rounded terminals throughout. Strokes keep a largely even color with gentle modulation, and curves are generous and slightly organic, giving bowls and counters an open, airy feel. Proportions lean toward a classic, readable text structure with a moderate x-height, longish ascenders, and relaxed spacing; some letters show subtle asymmetries and small idiosyncratic joins that add character without breaking consistency.
It suits editorial typography—books, essays, magazines, and longer-form reading—where a light, open texture is desirable. The soft slab serifs and mild quirks also make it a good choice for packaging, café or boutique branding, invitations, and headings that want a gentle, vintage-leaning serif presence without heavy contrast.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a quiet vintage flavor reminiscent of printed book work and handmade lettering. Rounded finishing details keep it from feeling severe, while the restrained color and steady rhythm maintain a composed, literary voice.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif readability with softened, rounded slab details for a friendlier voice. Its consistent stroke weight and open forms suggest a focus on comfortable text setting, while the slightly hand-touched quirks provide a distinctive signature for titles and brand applications.
Figures appear lining and light, matching the text weight, with curved forms that echo the rounded serif treatment. The lowercase includes distinctive, slightly playful shapes (notably in curves and terminals) that can add personality in display sizes while remaining suitable for continuous reading.
