A sturdy, display-leaning serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. The letterforms are broad and open, with strong vertical stress and assertive stems that contrast against fine hairline joins and cross-strokes. Curves tend toward squared shoulders and flattened bowls, giving many glyphs a slightly carved, sign-like geometry. Terminals are often ball-ended or teardrop-shaped in the lowercase, while capitals keep sharper apexes and more rigid symmetry; overall spacing reads generous and the rhythm is steady and emphatic.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and short passages where its contrast and sculpted serifs can be appreciated. It works well for editorial layouts, book and magazine covers, cultural posters, and brand marks that need a classic, authoritative serif with strong presence.
The font projects a confident, traditional voice with a punchy, high-impact presence. Its strong contrast and sculpted details evoke bookish authority and classic print craftsmanship, while the squarer curves add a slightly theatrical, poster-ready edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with heightened drama and impact, balancing conventional proportions with bolder, more sculptural details for display-oriented settings.
In text samples, the heavy verticals and compact internal counters create dense, dark typographic color that favors larger sizes. Numerals appear sturdy and compact, matching the capitals’ weight and keeping a consistent, formal tone across mixed alphanumeric settings.
