This serif presents sturdy, bracketed wedge serifs and softly flared stroke endings, giving the letterforms a carved, slightly calligraphic feel. Curves are generously rounded and bowls are open, while joins and terminals stay crisp, creating a confident, readable rhythm. Capitals are broad and commanding with ample internal space; lowercase forms keep a consistent, comfortable texture, with a single-story “g” and a brisk, slightly angled “e” cross-stroke. Numerals are bold and stable, with the “2” and “3” showing expressive curved tails and the “9” finishing in a pronounced, sweeping terminal.
It performs especially well in display and editorial contexts—headlines, deck copy, book and magazine covers, and heritage-leaning branding—where its broad proportions and pronounced serifs can project presence. It can also work for short passages or pull quotes when a traditional, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone is classic and institutional, with a hint of old-style warmth beneath the bold, formal presence. It reads as confident and established—suited to settings that want tradition and authority without feeling fragile or overly delicate.
The design appears intended to evoke a conventional, bookish serif with enlarged, confident proportions and sculpted detailing, balancing classic serif structure with enough flare and curvature to feel distinctive in headlines.
In text, the font maintains a strong horizontal flow thanks to prominent serifs and wide capitals, producing a dense, editorial color at larger sizes. The punctuation and figures match the same robust, slightly sculpted character, helping headlines feel cohesive and emphatic.
