A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp bracketed serifs. The letterforms are upright and generously proportioned, with substantial vertical stems, rounded bowls, and clear, sculpted joins. Serifs tend toward sharp, slightly beaked terminals, while lowercase shows compact, rounded counters and a traditional two-storey construction where expected. Numerals are weighty and confident, matching the strong overall rhythm and dark color on the page.
It performs well for editorial settings such as magazine headings and subheads, and can carry dense paragraphs where a traditional, high-contrast serif is desired. The substantial weight and clear structure also suit branding, packaging, and formal print materials that benefit from a confident, classic typographic voice.
The font conveys a classic, authoritative tone with an editorial seriousness. Its strong contrast and sturdy serifs give it a traditional, established voice suited to formal communication, while the generous proportions keep it readable and composed.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a strong, contemporary print presence—balancing traditional proportions and serif detailing with a darker, more assertive color. It aims to deliver clarity and authority in both display and reading contexts.
At text sizes the face produces a notably dark, steady texture with clear word shapes and strong vertical emphasis. The shapes feel intentionally conventional rather than decorative, with details that read as refined and traditional—especially in the serif treatment and the firm, sculpted curves.
