A wide, upright serif with medium stroke contrast and strongly modeled, calligraphic forms. Serifs are bracketed and often sharpen into forked, spurred terminals, giving many strokes a slightly flared, sculpted finish. Curves are full and round with confident entry/exit strokes, while joins and cross-strokes show subtle modulation rather than rigid geometry. Overall spacing and proportions read open and expansive, with generous widths and a steady, traditional rhythm.
It performs best in headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other short-to-medium settings where its ornate terminals can be appreciated. The wide set and pronounced serif detailing make it well suited to book covers, editorial branding, packaging, and poster typography, especially where a traditional or literary voice is desired.
The font conveys a classic, bookish tone with a touch of ornament. Its spurred terminals and gently dramatic curves suggest heritage printing and editorial seriousness, while the wide proportions add a composed, stately presence suited to display use.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a traditional serif through widened proportions and decorative, forked/spurred terminals. It aims for a historically informed, display-forward texture that remains structured and legible while adding character through sculpted finishing strokes.
Capitals present strong, balanced silhouettes with pronounced serif detailing, and the lowercase maintains a readable, traditional structure with distinctive spur-like feet and terminals. Numerals share the same calligraphic stress and serif treatment, helping headings and short figure strings feel consistent with the text color.
