A sturdy serif with generous weight and clearly bracketed serifs. Strokes show moderate modulation with rounded joins and softly tapered terminals, creating a warm, slightly oldstyle texture rather than a sharply engraved one. The lowercase is compact with a normal x-height, while ascenders and descenders are assertive, giving lines a strong vertical rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and the overall spacing reads dense and solid, supporting confident color on the page.
Performs well in headlines and subheads where a strong serif presence is desirable, and can also serve for short to medium text in editorial layouts when a dense, confident texture is acceptable. It fits branding and packaging that aim for classic credibility, and works effectively in posters or signage where a traditional serif voice is needed.
The tone is traditional and assured, with a familiar book-and-newspaper voice. Its heavy presence and rounded details suggest reliability and seriousness while staying approachable, making it feel suited to institutions, publishing, and heritage-flavored design.
Likely designed to deliver a conventional, highly readable serif with extra heft for emphasis, balancing classic proportions with softened terminals to keep the color inviting. The overall construction prioritizes a stable, familiar reading experience with enough weight to hold up in display settings.
The numerals and capitals carry a headline-like solidity, while the lowercase maintains legibility through clear letterform differentiation. Rounded ball/teardrop terminals appear in places, adding a subtle softness that offsets the otherwise firm, editorial stance.
