A heavy, print-oriented text face with bracketed serifs and softly sculpted curves. Strokes are robust with gently modulated joins, and counters are relatively compact, giving the forms a dense, emphatic color. Terminals frequently end in subtle teardrop or wedge-like shapes, while the capital set reads sturdy and slightly condensed in feel. The lowercase shows familiar, bookish proportions with a clear double-storey a, a single-storey g, and a sharply formed t, contributing to strong word shapes. Numerals appear oldstyle with noticeable ascenders/descenders, reinforcing a classic, text-centric rhythm.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of editorial copy where a dense, confident texture is desirable. It can also serve in book or magazine typography and heritage-leaning branding, particularly when oldstyle numerals complement the content (dates, prices, and running figures).
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, evoking newspaper and book typography. Its weight and compact internal spaces give it a serious, declarative voice suited to established brands and editorial settings rather than playful or minimalist work.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic, print-like voice with strong presence and dependable readability, combining sturdy serif structure with subtle shaping to keep large text expressive and small text steady.
At larger sizes the strong serifs and compact counters create a distinctive, slightly rugged texture. The lively oldstyle figures and pronounced punctuation give running text a literary, historically rooted character.
