A robust serif with bracketed wedge-like terminals and a steady, moderately contrasted stroke. The letterforms are compact and strongly modeled, with rounded joins, pronounced sheared curves, and gently flared stems that give the face a sculpted, ink-on-paper feel. Capitals are wide and stable, while lowercase forms show lively, oldstyle influence—single-storey a and g, a left-leaning e with a compact eye, and a t with a curved top and substantial foot. Numerals are sturdy and traditional in texture, maintaining the same confident weight and dark color as the letters.
Well suited to editorial typography where a classic serif voice is needed, particularly for headings, subheads, and pull quotes that benefit from a darker, more emphatic color. It can also work for book jackets, heritage branding, and packaging where traditional gravitas and recognizable serif detailing help convey trust and longevity.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, projecting authority and familiarity without feeling delicate. Its strong presence and warm, slightly calligraphic detailing suggest heritage publishing and institutional communication rather than minimalist modern design.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif foundation with extra weight and expressive, oldstyle-influenced shaping. Its aim is to balance legibility with a distinctive, historically grounded personality that holds up in both display and dense text settings.
In text, the font creates a dense, emphatic rhythm with prominent verticals and strong serifs that lock letters into a cohesive line. Curves are generously rounded and terminals often end in teardrop-like or wedge forms, adding character at larger sizes while keeping a consistent, readable texture.
