A sturdy serif with pronounced contrast between thick verticals and finer connecting strokes, built on fairly compact proportions and a strong vertical stance. Serifs are bracketed but assertive, often with beak-like terminals and slightly flared ends that give the strokes a carved, engraved feel. Curves are broad and controlled, counters are moderately open, and the overall rhythm is dense and weighty; italics are not shown. Uppercase forms read monumental and firm, while the lowercase maintains a conventional text structure with clear ascenders and descenders and a moderately sized x-height.
Well suited to headlines, titles, and short blocks of text where a classic serif voice and strong weight are desired. It can also work for editorial display, book covers, institutional branding, and packaging that benefits from a traditional, authoritative typographic tone.
The font projects a classic, bookish authority with a slightly old-style, engraved flavor. Its heavy presence and crisp finishing details feel ceremonial and institutional, lending a serious, editorial tone rather than a casual one.
The design appears intended as a conventional text-serif with extra weight and sharpened finishing details, balancing readability with a more emphatic, classic display presence. Its contrast and assertive serifs suggest an aim to evoke traditional printing and established editorial typography while remaining versatile for contemporary use.
The numerals and capitals appear especially robust, with bold massing and crisp junctions that hold up in display sizes. Terminals on letters like C, G, S, and a show distinctive beak-like shaping that adds character without becoming decorative, supporting a traditional but distinctive texture in paragraphs.
