A sturdy serif with pronounced bracketed serifs and softly rounded terminals. Strokes show a clear, traditional modulation without becoming delicate, giving the letterforms a confident, ink-on-paper presence. Capitals are broad and stable with generous internal counters, while lowercase forms keep a comfortable, readable rhythm; the two-storey a and g and the compact joins contribute to a familiar text-face texture. Figures are weighty and well integrated, with old-style-like curvature and substantial bowls that hold up at display sizes.
Well suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and classical headline settings where a dense, confident serif texture is desirable. It can also support branding and packaging that benefits from heritage cues and a solid, traditional typographic voice.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with an old-world, bookish feel. Its rounded details and substantial serifs add warmth to an otherwise formal voice, suggesting established institutions, print culture, and editorial credibility.
The font appears designed to deliver a conventional, highly legible serif with a stronger-than-average presence, combining familiar text-face construction with reinforced details for emphasis in both reading and display contexts.
The design leans on strong horizontals and confident serifs, which create a dark, even typographic color in paragraphs. Curves tend to finish with soft, slightly ball-like terminals in places, and the punctuation feels sturdy and prominent alongside the heavy letterforms.
