A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and bracketed, wedge-like serifs. Strokes taper into sharp terminals and beaks, especially on letters like C, G, S, and the diagonals, giving the forms a slightly calligraphic bite despite the overall conventional structure. Uppercase proportions are wide and steady with strong vertical stress, while the lowercase shows compact, sturdy bowls and clear joins; counters remain open enough to hold up in dense setting. Numerals are similarly weighty and high-contrast, with old-style-like curves and assertive terminals that match the text rhythm.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazine headings, book titling, pull quotes, and other display-text crossover uses where a strong serif voice is desirable. It can also work for body text in larger sizes or shorter passages, and for packaging or brand collateral that benefits from a traditional, authoritative tone.
The tone is formal and editorial, projecting authority and tradition without feeling overly ornate. It reads as classic and slightly dramatic, with sharp terminals adding a confident, emphatic flavor suited to strong typographic voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic text-serif foundation with added punch through high contrast and sharpened terminals. It balances conventional proportions with more assertive detailing to maintain familiarity while increasing presence in print-like compositions.
In text, the heavy color and high contrast create a pronounced typographic texture, with prominent serifs contributing to clear word shapes and a deliberate, print-like rhythm. The design favors impact and presence, particularly in headings and short blocks where the sharp terminals can be appreciated.
