A sturdy serif with flared, wedge-like terminals and subtly bracketed joins that give strokes a sculpted, ink-on-paper feel. Curves are full and generous, with compact counters that keep the color dense, while the contrast remains moderate and consistent across rounds and stems. The serifs tend to taper into pointed or chiseled endings rather than flat slabs, and many forms show gentle swelling where strokes meet, reinforcing the flared rhythm. Overall proportions are conventional and readable, with a slightly emphatic, headline-friendly texture.
Works well for headlines and subheads where the flared terminals can be appreciated, especially in editorial layouts and book-cover typography. It can also support branding and poster work that benefits from a traditional, authoritative serif voice, and it remains legible enough for short text blocks when set with comfortable spacing.
The tone is classically literary and slightly emphatic, suggesting traditional printing and editorial authority. Its flared serifs add a hint of hand-cut or calligraphic character, lending warmth without becoming informal. The result feels confident and established, suited to messaging that wants weight and gravitas.
Likely designed to deliver a classic serif reading of authority, while using flared, wedge-like endings to differentiate it from more neutral oldstyle faces. The emphasis appears to be on a strong, cohesive texture for display and editorial settings, combining traditional proportions with distinctive terminal shaping.
In the sample text, the dense spacing and strong serif presence create a robust typographic color that holds up well at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals appear designed to match the same chiseled terminal language, keeping the set visually cohesive.
