A compact, sturdy serif with bracketed serifs and a relatively tight set. Strokes are firmly weighted with moderate modulation, producing a dark, even text color and strong vertical emphasis. Capitals feel tall and stately with crisp terminals, while the lowercase is compact with clear, open counters and a traditional two-storey construction where expected. Numerals match the robust tone and read cleanly at display sizes, maintaining consistent weight and proportion alongside the letters.
Well-suited to headlines, decks, and editorial typography where a strong serif voice is needed. The compact build makes it useful for space-conscious titles, pull quotes, and packaging or label-style applications that benefit from a classic, weighty look.
The overall tone is traditional and dependable, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its dense rhythm and pronounced serifs give it an editorial seriousness that reads as established and authoritative rather than playful or delicate.
The font appears intended as a conventional, traditional serif optimized for confident display and editorial messaging, emphasizing compact proportions, strong serifs, and a steady, readable rhythm.
The design’s compact proportions and strong serifs create pronounced word shapes and a steady baseline, contributing to a slightly condensed, economical feel. In paragraph setting it produces a dark, emphatic texture that favors clarity and impact over airiness.
