A robust text serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and strongly bracketed serifs. The forms show a traditional, slightly oldstyle construction with rounded joins and smooth, calligraphic curvature, paired with sturdy verticals and generous bowls. Capitals are broad and steady, while lowercase features compact, readable interiors and distinctive, weighty terminals; the overall color is dark and even in paragraph settings despite the high contrast.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book and long-form reading, and magazine typography where a strong serif voice is desired. It also performs convincingly in display contexts—headlines, posters, and section titles—where its dark color and crisp contrast provide impact without losing traditional refinement.
The font conveys a classic, authoritative tone associated with print tradition and editorial typography. Its confident weight and formal detailing feel established and trustworthy, leaning literary and institutional rather than casual or playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, print-forward serif voice with elevated contrast and sturdy proportions, balancing readability with a strong presence. It prioritizes a familiar, time-tested rhythm while adding emphasis through weight and crisp detailing.
Serifs read as firmly bracketed rather than slab-like, giving the design a softened, crafted feel. The numerals match the letterforms with substantial weight and clear contrast, supporting strong emphasis in headlines and pull quotes as well as dense text.
