A robust serif with flared, tapering stroke endings and firmly bracketed serifs that read more sculpted than mechanical. Strokes show clear modulation, with thick verticals and narrower joins that create a lively, carved rhythm, especially in diagonals and curved letters. Terminals often finish in soft beaks or teardrop-like forms, and several lowercase shapes (notably a, g, y) emphasize rounded, bulbous terminals that add weight without feeling blunt. Proportions are traditional and stable, with a moderate x-height, open counters, and slightly varied glyph widths that give the text an organic, text-face cadence.
Best suited to headlines, decks, and pull quotes where its weight and sculpted terminals can carry personality and authority. It also fits editorial and book-cover work that benefits from a traditional serif voice with a slightly more expressive, flared finish.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative with a hint of warmth—evoking printed editorial typography and traditional book culture. Its pronounced terminals and flared strokes add a human, crafted quality that feels established rather than clinical.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif foundation with added liveliness through flared stroke endings and rounded, beaked terminals, producing strong impact and an unmistakably print-oriented texture.
In the sample text, the strong color and sturdy serifs create a dense, headline-friendly texture, while the rounded terminals keep it from feeling overly sharp. Numerals and capitals carry the same flared, tapered finishing, supporting consistent typographic voice across display and short text settings.
