A robust serif with pronounced stroke contrast, bracketed wedge-like serifs, and a slightly sculpted, calligraphic modulation through curves. Capitals are broad and stately with sharp, tapered terminals, while lowercase shows traditional proportions with a two-storey “a,” a compact, sturdy “e,” and a distinctive “g” with a strong ear and closed lower bowl. Curves in letters like C, G, and S are full and rounded, and diagonals (V, W, Y) finish with crisp, pointed ends. Numerals include oldstyle-style figures (e.g., a descending “3/5/7/9” feel) that sit naturally within running text.
Works well for editorial layouts, book typography, and print-forward applications where a strong serif presence is desirable. It also suits headlines and subheads that need a traditional, authoritative tone, and can support heritage or institutional branding when used with generous spacing.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, with a confident, institutional voice. Its dark color and crisp serifs create an assertive, trustworthy impression suited to serious content and heritage-leaning branding.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif with a darker, more emphatic color, balancing classic book forms with crisp finishing details for strong performance in both display sizes and continuous reading.
In paragraph setting, the typeface forms a dense, even texture with clear word shapes and a strong baseline presence. The punctuation and apostrophe feel prominent, and the forms favor classic readability over minimalism.
