A dark, sturdy serif with generously bracketed, slightly flared serifs and softened joins that give the outlines a subtly hand-worn look. Strokes are mostly even with modest modulation, and terminals often end in rounded wedges rather than sharp cuts. The letterforms are broad and steady, with compact interior spaces and small-to-medium apertures that create a dense, punchy texture in words. Details like the curving leg of R, the stout diagonals in K and V/W, and the sturdy figures reinforce a cohesive, old-style, display-leaning construction.
Well suited for headlines, posters, labels, and branding where a vintage or handcrafted serif voice is desirable. It can also work for short editorial elements such as pull quotes or section headers, particularly when generous spacing and size help preserve clarity.
The overall tone feels nostalgic and artisanal—evoking old print, packaging, and shop signage rather than pristine modern typography. Its weight and softened edges read warm and approachable, while the assertive silhouettes give it a confident, headline-ready presence.
The design appears intended to capture the character of traditional printing and vernacular lettering in a bold serif form, balancing sturdy readability with decorative, worn-in details for strong display impact.
In the sample text, the heavy color and tight counters produce strong impact, especially in short lines and larger sizes. The numerals match the alphabet’s sturdy rhythm, and the punctuation retains the same rounded, wedge-like finishing that supports a consistent, slightly roughened voice.
