A robust serif with wedge-like, flared terminals and bracketed serifs that broaden into the stems. Strokes are solid and confident with moderate contrast, giving letters a carved, slightly engraved impression rather than a delicate book face. Proportions lean wide with ample internal space; counters are open and the joins are clean, producing strong readability at display sizes. The uppercase has a dignified, steady rhythm, while the lowercase shows rounded bowls and sturdy arches with pronounced, sculpted endings that keep the texture lively.
This face works best for headlines, subheads, and short-to-medium passages where a strong, classic texture is desired. It suits magazines, book covers, posters, and brand systems that need a traditional voice with presence, and it can add a premium, heritage character to packaging and identity applications.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a formal, heritage feel that reads as dependable and established. Its weight and flared detailing add a touch of grandeur, making it feel suited to institutional or ceremonial contexts while still staying approachable for editorial use.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif credibility with a more sculptural, flared finish, creating a sturdy display-oriented text that remains legible while signaling tradition and gravitas.
Numerals are heavy and clear with stable footing, matching the serif treatment and maintaining consistent color across mixed alphanumeric settings. The sample text shows a dense, confident page tone where the flared terminals and wedge serifs create a distinctive, slightly old-world texture without becoming ornamental.
