A compact serif with sturdy verticals and pronounced flaring at terminals that gives stems a subtly trumpet-like finish. Serifs are bracketed and wedge-leaning rather than slabby, with a crisp, carved feel at corners and apexes. The design keeps curves relatively tight and counters somewhat narrow, producing a dense rhythm in text; diagonals and joins taper cleanly, and round letters show controlled, slightly condensed bowls. Numerals and capitals share the same strong vertical emphasis and compact sidebearings, supporting a dark, continuous typographic color.
Best suited to display and editorial roles where a dense, assertive texture is desirable—headlines, subheads, mastheads, posters, and book-cover titling. It can also work for short blocks of text when a classic, high-impact serif voice is needed and generous leading is available.
The overall tone is traditional and emphatic, with a confident, slightly monumental presence. Its flared endings and compact proportions add a historical, print-forward character that feels suited to serious, establishment messaging rather than casual or playful use.
The design appears intended to combine traditional serif formality with a more dynamic, flared terminal treatment, creating a compact face that reads as both classic and punchy. Its emphasis on strong verticals and controlled detailing suggests a focus on impactful typography in print-like settings.
In the sample text, the tight internal spacing and dark color build strong line integrity at larger sizes, while the sharp detailing at terminals and joins becomes a defining feature. The lowercase maintains clear differentiation between similar forms (for example, i/j punctuation and varied ascenders), reinforcing a deliberate, editorial rhythm.
