A classic serif with old-style proportions and moderate stroke modulation, it shows bracketed serifs and softly tapered terminals. The outlines read slightly roughened, as if inked or lightly distressed, which creates texture and a lively rhythm in text. Capitals are sturdy and traditional, while the lowercase stays compact with a relatively low x-height and open counters that keep paragraphs readable.
Well-suited to editorial and book typography, including essays, novels, and long-form articles where a traditional serif is desired. It also works effectively for heritage branding, museum or cultural materials, packaging that benefits from an aged or printed texture, and display settings like headlines or pull quotes where the textured detail can be appreciated.
This typeface conveys a bookish, literary tone with a quiet warmth. Its slightly irregular, hand-touched finish lends an approachable, human presence rather than a pristine, corporate feel.
The design appears intended for comfortable continuous reading while retaining the character of printed, ink-on-paper type. Its proportions and moderate contrast aim for a familiar, classical voice, and the subtly rough outline adds visual personality without overwhelming the letterforms.
The sample text shows a steady color and consistent spacing, with texture that becomes more noticeable at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same gently worn finish, helping mixed-content layouts feel cohesive.
