A classic text serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a gently calligraphic modulation. Curves show diagonal stress, with round forms (C, G, O) opening generously and maintaining smooth, even rhythm. Capitals are stately and slightly wide with crisp terminals, while the lowercase uses traditional proportions and clear, open counters; the double-storey a and g reinforce a bookish, conventional texture. Numerals appear oldstyle with varying heights and extenders, blending naturally into running text.
Well-suited to long-form reading contexts such as books, essays, and magazine articles, where its open counters and classic serif structure support continuous text. It can also serve effectively for formal communications and academic or cultural materials that benefit from a traditional, established typographic tone.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, evoking printed books and established editorial typography. Its restrained detailing and balanced contrast feel refined and trustworthy rather than decorative, lending a composed, formal voice to paragraphs and titles alike.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional serif for comfortable reading, prioritizing a familiar book-like rhythm, clear word shapes, and restrained elegance over stylization.
The italic is not shown; all samples present a consistent upright roman. The text sample demonstrates steady color at larger sizes, with familiar punctuation and a slightly expressive ampersand that still reads as conventional.
