A heavy serif with compact proportions and prominent, flared stroke endings that read as soft wedges rather than flat slabs. Strokes are generally uniform in weight, but the shaping creates a subtle contrast impression through swelling terminals and tapered joins. Curves are full and rounded, with generous bowls and a slightly condensed rhythm; counters stay open despite the weight. Details like the ear on the lowercase g, the curled tail of Q, and the teardrop-like ball terminals on letters such as j add character while maintaining a consistent, sturdy texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where its strong silhouettes and flared detailing can be appreciated—headlines, pull quotes, covers, and short blocks of emphasis text. It can also work for branding and packaging where a classic-but-bold presence is desired, and for signage or labels that benefit from high visual impact.
The font projects a bold, traditional voice with a touch of playful swagger. Its flared terminals and rounded forms evoke a vintage editorial tone—serious enough for headlines, but energetic and approachable rather than formal or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust serif texture with distinctive flared terminals, combining traditional proportions with more animated, sculpted details. It aims for legibility at display sizes while offering enough personality to stand out in editorial and brand-driven typography.
In continuous text the color is dark and even, with clear word shapes thanks to open counters and simplified serif handling. The numerals match the letters’ stout stance and flared finishing, making mixed alphanumeric settings feel cohesive.
