A robust text serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a strongly sculpted, ink-trap-free silhouette. Strokes show noticeable modulation without becoming delicate, and the joins and terminals are rounded enough to soften the heavy color. The lowercase has a relatively large x-height with compact ascenders and descenders, producing a dense, steady rhythm. Counters are moderately open and the curves lean slightly toward a classic, oldstyle construction, while the numerals appear oldstyle with prominent descenders.
Well-suited to book and magazine typography where a strong, traditional serif voice is needed, especially for headings, decks, and pull quotes. The sturdy forms and large x-height also make it practical for packaging and poster work that needs a classic, authoritative texture.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, with a confident, slightly old-world presence. Its heavy typographic color and softened terminals read as authoritative rather than sharp, suggesting seriousness with a touch of warmth.
Likely intended as a conventional text serif with extra typographic weight and presence, balancing classic proportions with softened terminals for comfortable reading and confident display use.
Ball/teardrop terminals are evident in letters such as a, c, f, and y, adding a mildly calligraphic flavor. The capitals are sturdy and relatively wide, with clear bracketed serifs that hold up at display sizes. The figures have a classic, text-oriented feel that pairs naturally with long-form typography.
