A robust serif with strong thick–thin modulation and firmly bracketed serifs. The letterforms have generous, rounded bowls and a steady vertical stress, with crisp terminals and slightly tapered strokes that keep counters open despite the heavy weight. Proportions read comfortably broad, with capital widths and lowercase spacing that produce an even, readable rhythm in continuous text. Numerals match the text color with similarly sturdy stems and clear, conventional silhouettes.
Well-suited to headlines, titles, and pull quotes where a strong serif voice is desired. It also works for magazine and book typography—especially for short to medium text blocks—where its sturdy contrast and open counters can hold up at larger reading sizes.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, projecting authority and familiarity. Its weight and contrast add a confident, slightly dramatic presence that feels at home in traditional print contexts.
The font appears intended to deliver a conventional, text-oriented serif with extra weight and contrast for emphasis, combining classic structure with a bold editorial presence.
The design balances a dense typographic color with clean interior counters, helping it stay legible at display-to-text sizes. Bracketing and softened joins reduce harshness and give the face a more bookish, oldstyle warmth rather than a sharp modern feel.
