A heavy, upright serif with compact, sculpted letterforms and pronounced flared terminals that broaden into wedge-like serifs. Strokes are largely even in weight with minimal modulation, giving the face a dense, dark texture. Counters and apertures run on the tight side, while bowls and shoulders stay rounded but restrained, producing a sturdy rhythm. The lowercase shows a sturdy, workmanlike build with strong verticals, short joins, and a slightly compressed feel in many letters; numerals match the same blocky, high-impact presence.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks of text where its dense color and flared serif details can carry impact—such as posters, mastheads, packaging, and branding. It can also work for pull quotes or section openers in editorial layouts when a strong, traditional voice is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and traditional, evoking classic print and institutional typography while still feeling punchy enough for display use. Its strong silhouettes and compact internal spaces create a confident, slightly stern voice that reads as dependable and established.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic serif presence with extra weight and distinctive flare at stroke endings, prioritizing strong shapes and a unified dark texture for impactful display typography.
At larger sizes the distinctive flared endings and wedge serifs become a key identifying feature; at smaller sizes the tight counters and dark color may feel more forceful than delicate. The texture is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, supporting cohesive headline setting.
