A robust text serif with bracketed serifs, rounded stroke joins, and a steady, slightly calligraphic modulation. The capitals are broad and evenly proportioned, with open counters and softened terminals that keep the heavy weight from feeling harsh. Lowercase forms show traditional book-face traits—two‑storey a and g, a compact e with a defined eye, and a balanced rhythm that reads comfortably in blocks of text. Figures appear lining with sturdy verticals and rounded bowls, matching the letterforms’ solid color and familiar proportions.
Well suited to editorial typography, book interiors that benefit from a darker typographic color, and headline work where a classic serif voice is desired. It can also support brand identities and packaging that aim for heritage, credibility, or a traditional premium tone.
The overall tone is traditional and confident, with a bookish, institutional feel. Its weight and generous presence add authority, while the rounded bracketing and oldstyle details keep it approachable rather than rigid.
The design appears intended as a conventional, sturdily built serif for confident reading and strong typographic presence. It prioritizes familiar proportions and a cohesive, dark page color, suggesting a focus on dependable editorial and literary use.
At display sizes the strong serifs and compact interior spaces create a dense, editorial texture; in the text sample the line color is distinctly dark and emphatic. The design favors conventional, readable shapes over sharp or experimental details, supporting a stable reading rhythm.
