A sturdy serif with pronounced, flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than slabbed. Strokes are broadly even in weight, with gentle modulation and slightly softened joins that keep the heavy forms from looking brittle. Counters are generous and rounded, while terminals often swell into wedge-like finishes, giving a subtle chiseled rhythm across the alphabet. The uppercase is broad-shouldered and stable; the lowercase shows clear, readable shapes with a substantial presence, and figures are solid and headline-friendly.
This font is well suited to editorial headlines, book and magazine typography, and brand identities that need a traditional, reputable tone. Its heavy, flared details read strongly at display sizes and can also support short text passages where a dark, stable typographic color is desired.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with an old-style, print-minded gravity. Its flared endings and weighty silhouettes suggest institutional reliability—suited to voices that need to feel established, serious, and confident rather than trendy or delicate.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif familiarity with a more sculpted, flared finish, creating a robust voice that feels both historical and contemporary. It prioritizes presence and readability through broad proportions, clear counters, and emphatic terminals.
Distinctive flaring at stroke ends and intermittent notches at joins create a slightly ink-conscious texture, especially visible in letters like a, c, e, s, and t. The punctuation and numerals match the sturdy, editorial color, helping paragraphs hold together with a dense, confident rhythm.
