A sturdy serif with compact proportions, bracketed serifs, and rounded, slightly softened terminals. Strokes are weighty with moderate contrast and a gently calligraphic, transitional feel, producing strong vertical rhythm and dark text color. The lowercase shows rounded joins and prominent ball/teardrop terminals (notably on letters like a, c, f, j), while counters remain open enough for readability. Numerals appear oldstyle with varied heights and extenders, matching the texty, bookish construction.
Works well for editorial typography, book-like settings, and longer text where a strong serif texture is desired. The heavy color and clear shapes also suit headlines, institutional branding, certificates, and classic packaging that benefits from a traditional, trustworthy tone.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, leaning toward a classic book-and-newspaper voice. Its weight and rounded detailing add warmth and approachability while still reading as formal and established.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, readable serif with a darker, more assertive presence than a typical text face. Its rounded terminals and bracketed serifs suggest an aim for comfortable readability with a classic, print-oriented character.
Capitals are broad and steady, with confident serifs and minimal ornamentation, giving headings a dignified presence. The italic is not shown; the displayed style maintains a consistent upright stance with a slightly soft, ink-friendly edge.
