A robust serif with compact proportions and sturdy, low-modulation strokes. Stems and main horizontals carry a consistent weight, while terminals and serifs broaden into gently flared, bracketed endings that give the forms a carved, sculptural feel. Counters are fairly compact and the joins are smooth, producing dark, steady text color in paragraphs. The lowercase shows a relatively low x-height with pronounced ascenders and descenders, and the overall rhythm favors solidity over delicacy.
Well suited for headlines, subheads, and display typography where the flared serifs and dark color can carry presence. It also works in editorial or book-cover contexts to convey tradition and authority, and can add a classic, premium feel to packaging or branding when set with generous spacing.
The tone is confident and traditional, with a formal, institutional presence. Its broad terminals and emphatic serifs suggest heritage printing and editorial authority, while the rounded, softened shaping keeps it approachable rather than severe.
Likely designed to deliver a strong, traditional serif voice with flared, bracketed endings that hold up at display sizes and maintain a cohesive, weighty texture in text. The compact proportions and steady stroke weight prioritize impact, stability, and a timeless printed character.
The uppercase has a strong, poster-like stance, and the numerals appear similarly weighty and stable, suited to prominent settings. In continuous text, the heavy serifs and compact counters create a dense texture that reads as intentional and classic, especially at medium to larger sizes.
