A sturdy serif with gently flared, bracketed terminals and rounded joins that keep the heavy strokes from feeling abrupt. Proportions are fairly traditional with ample counters and a readable, moderately compact rhythm in text, while the capitals carry a confident, slightly wide stance. Serifs tend to widen into soft wedges rather than sharp hairlines, and the overall stroke modulation is restrained, giving the face a solid, even color on the page. Lowercase forms are straightforward and open, with a two-storey “a” and “g” and a clear, vertical stress that supports continuous reading.
Well-suited to magazine and newspaper-style headlines, book and report titling, and any setting that benefits from a strong serif voice without extreme contrast. It can also work for short blocks of text in print-forward layouts, and for branding applications where a classic, trustworthy feel is desired.
The tone feels classic and editorial, combining old-style warmth with a confident, contemporary heaviness. The flared endings add a subtly crafted, slightly historical flavor, while the smooth curves and generous internal space keep the mood approachable rather than formal.
Likely designed to deliver a dependable, readable serif with distinctive flared terminals—something that bridges traditional book typography and bold, modern editorial display needs. The emphasis appears to be on strong presence, clear word shapes, and a crafted finish that remains comfortable in running text.
At display sizes the thickened terminals read as a signature detail, lending a mildly engraved or print-era character. Numerals are sturdy and headline-friendly, matching the letterforms’ soft wedge finishing and maintaining a consistent visual weight across mixed text and figures.
