A robust serif with bracketed terminals and a strong, even texture. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation without becoming delicate, and the serifs are compact and firmly attached, giving the letters a steady, anchored feel. Proportions are fairly traditional with moderate counters and a rhythmic, slightly calligraphic flow in curves, while capitals read broad and confident. Numerals appear lining with sturdy shapes and conventional forms suited to continuous text.
Well-suited to editorial typography where a classic serif voice is needed, including magazine and newspaper settings, book interiors, and section heads. Its strong presence also makes it effective for titles, pull quotes, and other short-to-medium text that benefits from a traditional, print-forward character.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with an editorial polish that feels at home in established publishing. Its sturdy weight and crisp serifs convey seriousness and reliability, leaning more classic than decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, dependable serif for reading and editorial use, prioritizing a solid text color, clear letterforms, and familiar proportions over stylistic novelty.
In the sample text, the face maintains a consistent color across lines and holds detail well at display sizes, with punctuation and diacritics (where shown) matching the same sturdy, no-nonsense construction. Round letters keep their fullness, and joins stay clean, supporting a composed reading rhythm.
