A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a distinctly sculpted finish: many strokes broaden as they approach terminals, creating a flared, wedge-like serif impression rather than flat slabs. The proportions are generously set with broad capitals and roomy rounds, while counters stay open and well-defined at bold sizes. Curves are smoothly drawn with a slightly calligraphic tension, and joins feel solid and weighty. Numerals are substantial and traditional in feel, with strong contrast and prominent serifs that keep the figures visually anchored.
Best suited to headlines and large-size typography where the contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated. It works well for magazine titles, book covers, and branding that needs a classic, authoritative serif with a dramatic edge. For longer passages it will read as dense and emphatic, making it more appropriate for short editorial callouts than extended body text.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with a confident, editorial voice. Its high-contrast, sculpted terminals add a touch of drama and refinement that reads as traditional but not delicate. The weight and breadth give it a commanding presence suitable for serious, institutional, or heritage-leaning settings.
The design appears intended to combine traditional serif proportions with a sculpted, flared terminal treatment that amplifies impact at display sizes. It aims to deliver an authoritative, classic voice while keeping the heavy weight visually refined through contrast and shaped endings.
In text settings the heavy strokes and strong serifs create a pronounced typographic color and a rhythmic, headline-forward texture. The flared endings and bracket-like transitions help the heavy weight feel more carved and less blocky, supporting a refined display character even at large sizes.
