A robust serif with clearly flared stroke endings and gently bracketed terminals that give the letterforms a sculpted, carved feel. Strokes maintain a solid, steady rhythm with moderate contrast and firm vertical emphasis, while curves are full and slightly squared at joins. Proportions are slightly compact in the bowls and counters, creating dense, confident text color. Uppercase forms feel monumental and stable, and the lowercase shows traditional, readable shapes with a sturdy, workmanlike texture in continuous text.
Well-suited to headlines, decks, and pull quotes where its flared detailing and solid weight can carry impact. It also works for editorial and book-cover typography that benefits from a classic, authoritative voice, and for branding or packaging that aims for heritage and trust.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a bookish, institutional character. Its flared finishing and weighty presence evoke classic editorial typography and formal signage, projecting credibility and seriousness without feeling overly delicate.
Likely designed to blend traditional serif readability with a more forceful, sculptural display presence. The flared stroke endings and compact counters suggest an intent to deliver strong typographic color and a distinctive, engraved-like finish in both short text and prominent titles.
Large sizes emphasize the chiseled terminals and the subtle swell into the serifs, while paragraph settings show a consistent, dark color and strong word shapes. Numerals appear sturdy and legible, matching the same flared, serifed language for cohesive display use.
