A robust serif with flared, tapered stroke endings and bracketed serifs that give the forms a sculpted, carved feel. Strokes carry noticeable contrast without becoming delicate, and counters stay open and rounded, supporting legibility at larger text sizes. The lowercase shows sturdy proportions with a double-storey “a” and single-storey “g,” plus strong, weighty joins in letters like “n,” “m,” and “h.” Numerals are heavy and compact with clear, traditional shapes that align visually with the capitals.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and short-to-medium editorial settings where a strong typographic voice is desirable. It works well for magazine or newspaper-style design, book covers, and branding that aims for heritage, authority, or a classical tone.
The overall tone is assertive and traditional, with an editorial seriousness that feels established and trustworthy. Its broad, dark presence reads confident and slightly dramatic, lending headlines a formal, declarative voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif reading experience with extra visual mass and distinctive flared terminals, balancing classic proportions with a bold, attention-grabbing presence for display-forward typography.
The face maintains a consistent, inky color across words, with prominent serif terminals that create a rhythmic, insistent texture in running lines. Capitals appear especially monumental, while the lowercase keeps enough openness to avoid feeling cramped despite the heavy weight.
