A very heavy serif with broad proportions and strongly bracketed, wedge-like serifs that give the letters a carved, flared feeling. Strokes are thick and confident, with moderate modulation and rounded joins that keep counters open despite the weight. Many forms show ball terminals and beaked details (notably in the lowercase), and the overall drawing favors sturdy, compact bowls with slightly soft corners rather than razor-sharp transitions. The numerals match the letters with ample width, bold presence, and clear, traditional shapes.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, posters, and brand marks where a strong, classic serif voice is needed. It can also work for book covers and packaging, especially when you want a dense, traditional texture and high impact at larger sizes.
The tone is bold and assertive, with a classic, old-school flavor that suggests print tradition and institutional lettering. Its heavy color and confident serifs communicate authority and durability, while the rounded terminals add a friendly, approachable edge.
Likely intended as a bold, traditional serif for impactful display use, blending classic bookish forms with extra weight and width for emphasis and presence in modern layouts.
In text, the rhythm is dense and dark, producing strong typographic texture suited to large sizes and short lines. The lowercase shows familiar text-serif constructions (two-storey a, single-storey g) that read as traditional, while the overall width helps maintain clarity in heavy settings.
