A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a steady upright axis. The serifs are bracketed and distinctly shaped, giving strokes a sculpted, ink-trap-free finish, while many joins and terminals show soft curves rather than sharp cuts. Uppercase forms are classical and stable, with wide bowls (notably in B, D, O) and a strong, symmetrical structure; the G features a clear interior bar. The lowercase shows compact, readable proportions with rounded bowls and prominent ball/teardrop terminals in places (such as on a, c, f), and a single-storey g with a rounded ear. Numerals are sturdy and old-style-leaning in feel, with noticeable stroke contrast and ample interior space.
Well suited for editorial headlines, magazine display, and book-cover typography where a traditional serif voice and strong contrast are desirable. It also works for short blocks of text, pull quotes, and titling where a darker, more authoritative color is beneficial.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, projecting authority and familiarity rather than novelty. Its contrast and shaped terminals add a touch of refinement, while the heavy color and confident silhouettes make it feel assertive and institutional.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast serif optimized for confident display and editorial reading contexts, balancing classical structure with expressive terminals for a distinctive, print-like finish.
In text, the font creates a dark, even typographic color with clear word shapes and strong verticals. The spacing appears generous enough to keep counters from clogging at larger text sizes, and the punctuation and ampersand match the same sculpted, serifed voice as the letters.
