A robust, high-contrast serif with bracketed wedge serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The capitals are broad and steady with sharp, triangular terminals and a slightly calligraphic stress, while the lowercase shows compact bowls, sturdy verticals, and clear, traditional constructions. Curves are smooth and weighty, counters are moderately open, and overall spacing feels deliberate, creating a confident rhythm suited to continuous text as well as display sizes.
It suits book and long-form editorial typography where a dark, confident texture is desired, and it scales well to headlines and subheads thanks to its strong contrast and crisp serifs. It can also support formal branding, invitations, and institutional materials that benefit from a traditional, authoritative voice.
The typeface conveys a classic, editorial tone—serious, assured, and somewhat traditional. Its strong contrast and emphatic serifs add a sense of refinement and authority, evoking book typography and institutional communications rather than casual or playful settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif with elevated contrast and strong, bracketed serifs to deliver a refined but sturdy page color. Its proportions and terminals suggest a focus on classic text traditions while maintaining enough weight and presence for prominent editorial use.
The numerals appear firm and old-style in spirit, with noticeable contrast and pronounced terminals that match the serif vocabulary. The italic is not shown; the sample demonstrates a consistent roman texture with a dark overall color and clear word shapes at larger sizes.
