A sturdy serif with pronounced stroke contrast and compact, slightly tapered serifs that read as bracketed wedges rather than slabs. The letterforms have full, rounded bowls and a generous overall width, with thick main stems and finer joins that create a lively black-and-white rhythm in text. Terminals often finish in soft, bulb-like shapes, and several joins show small notches or ink-trap-like cut-ins that add texture and help separate counters at heavier sizes. Numerals follow the same robust, rounded construction, maintaining a consistent, dark typographic color.
Well-suited to editorial headlines and subheads where a dense, authoritative serif is desired, and it can also carry short passages in display-sized text. Its strong color and distinctive terminals make it a good option for book covers, posters, and packaging that aim for a classic, heritage-leaning look.
The overall tone feels traditional and literary, with a slightly old-style, print-forward character. Its heavy presence and rounded detailing add warmth and a hint of vintage charm, making it feel confident rather than delicate or austere.
The design appears aimed at a conventional text-serif structure pushed toward a heavier, more characterful display presence. The bracketed serifs, rounded bowls, and textured joins suggest an intent to evoke traditional print while staying highly legible at larger sizes.
In running text the strong verticals and crisp internal shaping keep counters open, while the distinctive terminal treatment gives the face a recognizable voice. The mix of smooth curves and sharp, bracketed transitions produces a textured, slightly “inked” surface that suits larger settings particularly well.
