A heavy, high-contrast-in-feel serif with subtly flared stroke endings and softly bracketed serifs that give the letterforms a carved, ink-trap-free solidity. Strokes stay largely even in weight, but broaden as they approach terminals, creating a gentle wedge-like emphasis at corners and ends. Counters are generous and round, with compact joins and a steady rhythm that holds up well at display sizes. The lowercase is straightforward and readable, with a two-storey “a,” a single-storey “g,” and slightly squared shoulders that keep textures tight without becoming rigid.
This font is well-suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial titling where a bold, traditional voice is needed with a touch of warmth. It can support branding and packaging that benefit from a sturdy, crafted feel, and it remains readable for short passages or pull quotes when set with comfortable leading.
The overall tone is confident and approachable—rooted in classic print traditions, yet friendly rather than formal. The flared endings add a subtle calligraphic warmth that feels craft-driven and dependable, making the font read as earnest and slightly nostalgic without turning decorative.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif structure with subtly flared terminals to add warmth and presence at larger sizes. It aims for strong legibility and a dependable texture while avoiding the stiffness of purely geometric or sharply transitional serifs.
Capitals are broad and stable with calm curves and assertive serifs; diagonals (like in K, V, W, X) keep crisp, chiseled terminals that reinforce the flared motif. Numerals appear robust and highly legible, with open shapes and strong silhouettes suited to headings and short numeric callouts.
