A robust serif with sculpted, flaring terminals and clearly bracketed serifs that taper into the stems. Curves are full and confident, with moderately open counters and a steady, print-like rhythm in text. The design shows a subtle calligraphic influence in the way strokes swell and ease into their endings, while overall letterforms remain controlled and compact. Numerals are strong and traditional, with clear differentiation and a consistent color that suits display sizes as well as shorter text passages.
Well-suited for headlines and subheads in magazines, newspapers, and longform editorial layouts where a confident serif voice is needed. It also fits book covers, cultural posters, and branding systems that want a traditional tone with distinctive flared detailing. For best results, give it comfortable tracking in large settings and ample leading in text-heavy compositions.
The font conveys a classic, editorial confidence—formal without feeling fragile. Its flared finishing and strong shapes suggest tradition, credibility, and a slightly engraved or bookish character, making it feel at home in established brands and print-centric contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif color with added character through flared, sculpted terminals—balancing familiarity with a more tactile, crafted finish. It aims for strong presence in display typography while staying cohesive and readable in short blocks of text.
In the sample text, the face maintains a dense, even texture with prominent serifs that help guide horizontal flow. The boldness and shaping give capitals particular presence, while lowercase remains sturdy and readable with clear joins and stable proportions.
