A compact, heavy serif with distinctly flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than purely geometric. The design shows moderate-to-high contrast between thick stems and thinner joins, with rounded, slightly teardrop-like terminals on some letters that soften the mass. Counters are relatively tight and the overall silhouette is sturdy and compact, giving strong color on the page. The lowercase features a single-storey “a” and “g”, a rounded “e” with a small eye, and a “t” with a pronounced top, reinforcing a solid, old-style-informed construction.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and short-to-medium editorial blocks where strong typographic color is desirable. It also works well for branding and packaging that want a traditional, trustworthy tone with a touch of warmth.
The font projects a classic, grounded tone—confident and sturdy, but not austere. Its flared endings and rounded details add warmth and a subtly handcrafted feel, making the voice more personable than strictly formal.
The design appears intended to combine a classic serif structure with flared, sculpted terminals to deliver strong impact without feeling rigid. Its compact proportions and weight aim for clear, emphatic presence in display and titling contexts.
Capital forms read as broad and steady, with a noticeable wedge/flared energy at terminals that enhances emphasis in display sizes. Numerals follow the same robust, slightly softened logic, keeping a consistent, weighty texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
