This typeface is a conventional text serif with bracketed serifs and gently modulated strokes. Curves are round and full, with softened joins and occasional ball terminals, giving the letterforms a slightly old-style flavor while keeping overall construction straightforward. Proportions are moderate, with a steady rhythm in running text and comfortable counters; the lowercase shows a traditional two-storey a and g and a modest x-height relative to the capitals. Numerals appear oldstyle, blending naturally with lowercase text rather than standing rigidly on the baseline.
It is well suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif voice supports clarity and comfort. The oldstyle numerals also make it a good fit for text with frequent dates, measurements, or footnotes in running copy.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, evoking printed literature and academic publishing. Its softened details and restrained contrast add a warm, approachable feel without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended as a dependable, humanist-leaning text serif that prioritizes readability and a traditional typographic voice, offering subtle personality through softened terminals and oldstyle figures while staying appropriate for general-purpose publishing.
The italics are not shown, but the upright roman displayed maintains clear differentiation between similar forms (for example i/l/1) through serifs and terminal shapes. The sample text suggests stable spacing and a consistent color suitable for paragraph settings.
