A serif text face with moderately bracketed serifs and gently flared stroke endings. Strokes show controlled contrast with rounded joins and a slightly calligraphic, hand-cut feel rather than a purely mechanical construction. Curves are open and generous, counters are rounded, and terminals often finish in small hooks or teardrop-like forms (notably in letters like a, f, g, j, and y). Numerals follow the same lively rhythm, mixing straight stems with soft curves and subtle terminal shaping for a cohesive texture.
Well suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and long-form reading where a traditional serif voice is desired. The distinctive terminals also make it effective for chapter titles, pull quotes, and display settings that benefit from a classic yet characterful texture.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, evoking a classical, slightly old-world sensibility. Its soft curves and expressive terminals add warmth and personality while maintaining a formal, authoritative voice suitable for reading-oriented typography.
Likely designed to deliver a readable, traditional serif with added personality through expressive terminals and gentle flare, balancing formal structure with a subtly decorative, humanist touch for both text and display use.
The narrow stance and active terminal detailing create a textured page color that feels energetic without becoming ornate. Uppercase forms read dignified and steady, while lowercase shapes introduce more movement through curved tails and hooked descenders, giving the font a distinctive, slightly decorative edge within a text-seriffed framework.
