A conventional serif text face with moderately wide proportions, sturdy stems, and gentle modulation. Serifs are bracketed and softly tapered, with rounded joins that keep the texture calm rather than sharp. Uppercase forms are open and balanced, while the lowercase shows a slightly lively, oldstyle rhythm—most evident in the single-storey a and g and the softly curved terminals. The numerals appear oldstyle, with varying heights and several figures dipping below the baseline, reinforcing a traditional book-typography feel.
Well suited to body copy in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif voice and consistent text color are important. It should also work for headings and pull quotes when a traditional, bookish presence is desired, especially in print-like or literature-oriented branding.
The overall tone is literary and established, suggesting print tradition and editorial seriousness without feeling austere. Subtle curvature and rounded finishing details add warmth, making it feel approachable and readable rather than formal or ceremonial.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text serif that prioritizes readability and an established typographic voice. Details such as oldstyle numerals and softly bracketed serifs suggest an aim toward book and editorial composition rather than display-driven novelty.
In text, spacing reads even and comfortable, producing a steady gray value suited to continuous reading. The italic is not shown; the roman carries a mild handwritten influence in details, but remains firmly within a conventional serif texture.
