A robust serif with flared stroke endings and pronounced bracketed serifs that broaden smoothly into the terminals. The letterforms are strongly sculpted, with rounded bowls, compact inner counters, and a slightly condensed, weight-forward presence that keeps texture dark and even. Curves show subtle modulation, while joins and terminals exhibit a calligraphic flare that reads clearly at larger sizes. Numerals are sturdy and traditional in construction, matching the uppercase’s broad shapes and the lowercase’s solid, grounded rhythm.
This font is well suited to headlines, pull quotes, and display settings where a classic serif voice is needed with extra punch. It can also work for book covers, mastheads, and branding systems seeking a heritage-forward look, especially in larger sizes where the flared terminals and bracket details can be appreciated.
The overall tone is authoritative and traditional, with a distinctly editorial voice. Its flared terminals add a touch of warmth and craft, balancing formality with a subtly expressive, almost engraved character. The heavy presence makes it feel confident, emphatic, and suited to statement typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif structure with added emphasis through flared terminals and weighty forms, creating a recognizable, high-impact texture. It aims to evoke classic editorial typography while remaining assertive and visually distinctive in display use.
Uppercase forms are wide and stable, with generous bowls in letters like C, G, and O, while the lowercase shows sturdy verticals and rounded, weighty shapes that maintain consistent color in text. The sample paragraph demonstrates strong word shape and a cohesive headline-like texture, though the darker mass suggests it performs best where impact is desired rather than delicate reading.
