This is a traditional serif with slender stems, bracketed wedge-like serifs, and moderate stroke modulation that reads clearly at text sizes. Proportions are relatively generous, with open counters and a steady, even rhythm across words. Curves are smooth and round, while terminals and serifs come to crisp, slightly pointed finishes, giving the outlines a clean, engraved feel. The uppercase forms are stately and balanced, and the lowercase maintains a conventional structure with a straightforward two-storey “g” and a compact, readable “a.” Numerals follow the same restrained, text-oriented construction with clear differentiation between figures.
It suits body text in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture and comfortable reading rhythm are desired. It can also work well for academic materials, reports, and other formal documents that benefit from a traditional typographic tone.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, projecting editorial seriousness and a composed, traditional voice. Its sharp finishing details add a slightly formal, authoritative edge without becoming ornate or decorative.
The design appears intended as a conventional, dependable text serif: light on the page, carefully modulated, and shaped for sustained reading with a classic, cultivated presence.
The font maintains consistent spacing and a calm baseline texture, with distinct, well-separated shapes that help readability in continuous text. The serif treatment is evident but not heavy, keeping the page color light while retaining a distinctly serif character.
