A robust serif with compact proportions and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, with softened joins that give the strokes a slightly calligraphic, oldstyle flavor while keeping overall construction upright and steady. Curves are full and weighty, counters are relatively small, and terminals frequently finish with rounded or teardrop shapes, producing a dense, emphatic color in text. Numerals and capitals read as strong display-capable forms, while the lowercase maintains a traditional rhythm suitable for setting paragraphs at larger sizes.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where a classic serif voice needs weight and presence. It can also work for editorial and book-cover typography, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the contrast, brackets, and terminals remain clear and the dense color becomes an asset.
The font conveys a classic, bookish authority with a slightly vintage warmth. Its heavy presence and traditional serif detailing suggest seriousness and credibility, making it feel established rather than experimental.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, authoritative serif tone with extra weight for impact, combining traditional bracketed serifs and oldstyle-influenced terminals to create a familiar yet emphatic reading experience.
The texture is intentionally dark and compact, so line spacing and sizing will noticeably affect readability; it tends to shine when given a bit of air. The overall impression is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, with a strong emphasis on sturdy verticals and rounded, expressive terminals.
