This serif shows crisp, bracketed serifs with a measured, bookish rhythm and clear, open counters. Strokes are moderately modulated with smooth transitions into terminals, giving letters a slightly calligraphic feel without becoming decorative. Capitals are stately and well-proportioned, while the lowercase maintains a steady texture with relatively compact joins and gently rounded shoulders. Details like the two-storey “a” and “g,” the curved “f,” and the angled, wedge-like serifs on stems contribute to a traditional text-face silhouette that remains clean at size.
It suits extended reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. The capitals and numerals also make it appropriate for section headings, pull quotes, and institutional or heritage-leaning branding that benefits from a composed, authoritative voice.
The overall tone is classical and cultivated, suggesting literature, scholarship, and established institutions. It feels calm and trustworthy rather than trendy, with a refined formality that suits long-form reading and considered communication.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-readability serif that prioritizes familiar forms and an even text color, offering a timeless look for continuous text while remaining polished enough for display sizes.
Figures appear oldstyle-inspired in feel, with varying heights and curved forms that blend naturally into running text. The italic is not shown; the samples emphasize a steady roman texture with distinct letterforms and a balanced presence in both headings and paragraphs.
