A very heavy serif with sturdy proportions and softly modeled forms. Serifs are clearly bracketed and often flare into bulb-like, teardrop terminals, giving the strokes a rounded, carved feel rather than a sharp, mechanical one. Curves are generous and counters are relatively compact, producing a dark, even texture in text. The lowercase shows traditional shapes with a two-storey “g” and a ball-like dot on “i/j,” while capitals have broad, stable silhouettes and strong vertical emphasis.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and other short-to-medium settings where its dense color and distinctive serifs can provide impact and character. It can also work for editorial pull quotes, book covers, and packaging where a traditional, sturdy voice is desired, with enough clarity to handle brief paragraphs at comfortable sizes.
The overall tone is classic and assertive, with a friendly warmth that comes from the rounded terminals and softened transitions. It suggests traditional print and heritage contexts, reading as confident and slightly old-fashioned rather than sleek or minimalist.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif voice with extra weight and softened, expressive terminals—combining strong presence with an approachable, print-classic feel for display-led typography.
The numerals and caps carry a robust, poster-like presence, while the lowercase maintains readable, text-oriented construction. The heavy weight and compact inner spaces create high impact at display sizes, and a distinctive rhythm in headlines and short passages.
