A heavy, high-impact serif with pronounced stroke contrast and visibly flared, wedge-like terminals. Serifs are strongly bracketed and often taper into sharp points, while curves show tight pinch points at joins that create teardrop counters and a carved, sculptural rhythm. The uppercase is broad and assertive with deep interior shapes (notably in B, D, O, Q), and the lowercase mixes robust bowls with compact apertures and prominent ball terminals (especially on a, c, f). Numerals are similarly weighty and sculpted, with distinctive forms such as the angled 4 and compact, rounded 8 and 9.
Best suited to headlines, cover lines, and other display settings where its sculpted contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated. It can also support branding systems that want a classic, authoritative voice, and works well for book covers or editorial titles where a traditional serif feel is desired without looking purely oldstyle.
The overall tone feels editorial and classical, with a distinctly dramatic, display-forward presence. Its sharp bracketing, flared endings, and dense color give it a heritage and print-centric character—confident, formal, and slightly theatrical rather than minimalist.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, traditional serif voice with added drama through flared stroke endings and sharply bracketed details. Its proportions and terminal treatment prioritize strong, recognizable letterforms and impactful texture for display typography.
Spacing and sidebearings appear tuned for large sizes, producing a tight, poster-like texture in the sample paragraph. The design emphasizes strong silhouettes and interior contrast, which reads crisply at headline scale but can create a busy texture in long passages when set very large and tightly tracked.
