A very heavy, old-style serif with strongly bracketed serifs and pronounced, rounded terminals. Strokes are thick and confident with moderate contrast, giving the letters a dense, high-ink color and sturdy texture in paragraphs. The forms lean slightly toward transitional/book serifs: capitals are broad and stable, while lowercase shows generous curves, a two-storey “a,” and a compact “e” with a small aperture. Numerals are similarly weighty and rounded, matching the text rhythm and maintaining consistent visual mass.
Best suited to headlines, editorial titling, and short blocks of text where a strong, classic serif voice is desired. It can work well for packaging and branding that benefits from a traditional, premium tone, and for posters or announcements that need bold readability with a bookish character.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a classic print feel that reads as established and dependable. Its boldness adds a confident, editorial punch, making it feel more declarative than delicate.
Likely designed to deliver a conventional text-serif structure with extra visual weight for emphasis, preserving classical detailing (bracketed serifs and rounded terminals) while maintaining a solid, highly legible silhouette at display sizes.
Counters and apertures are relatively tight for the weight, which increases darkness and impact but can reduce clarity at very small sizes. Ball-like terminals (notably on letters such as “a,” “c,” “f,” and “j”) add a slightly warm, historical character compared with sharper, more modern serifs.
