A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharply modeled, bracketed serifs. Strokes terminate in crisp wedges and subtle curves, with rounded/ball-like terminals appearing in several lowercase forms and a generally sculpted, calligraphic construction. Counters are generous and the rhythm is steady, while letterforms show traditional proportions—broad capitals, a moderate x-height, and lively width variation across the set. Numerals are weighty and high-contrast, matching the text color and maintaining clear, old-style-inspired shapes.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and editorial typography where a strong serif texture is desirable. It will also work well for book covers, magazine titles, pull quotes, and formal branding applications that benefit from a traditional, high-impact serif voice.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a confident, bookish presence. Its strong contrast and substantial serifs give it a serious, institutional feel suited to classic publishing and refined branding. The rounded terminals add a hint of warmth, keeping the voice from feeling purely austere.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic text-serif structure with heightened contrast and weight for commanding display and editorial use. It balances traditional proportions with assertive stroke modulation to create a refined but emphatic typographic color.
At larger sizes the detailing in joins and terminals reads especially well, giving headings a carved, print-like character. In dense settings it will produce a dark, emphatic texture, so spacing and line length will strongly influence perceived legibility.
