A sturdy serif with distinctly flared stroke endings and bracketed transitions, giving stems a subtly swelling, chiseled feel rather than hard terminals. The proportions are compact and weighty, with relatively short extenders and a solid, even texture in text. Curves are round and full, counters are moderately open, and joins read smooth and slightly calligraphic. Numerals and capitals maintain a strong vertical presence while retaining gentle modulation and softened, serifed finishing throughout.
Well suited to editorial headlines, magazine and newspaper-style typography, and book-cover titling where a confident serif presence is desired. It can also support brand marks and packaging that benefit from a traditional, crafted tone, especially at medium to large sizes where its flared detailing remains prominent.
The overall tone is traditional and assured, with a bookish, editorial voice that feels established and trustworthy. Its flared endings add a crafted, historical nuance that reads less mechanical than a modern serif, bringing warmth to otherwise formal, authoritative letterforms.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic serif voice with added character through flared terminals, balancing formality with a subtly hand-shaped finish. It prioritizes strong, readable silhouettes and a dense, impactful color for display and titling contexts.
The face produces a dark, emphatic color at display sizes, with clear word-shape definition and a steady rhythm across mixed-case text. The flaring and bracketing create a consistent “inked” edge character that stays coherent across straight stems, diagonals, and rounded forms.
