A robust serif with sculpted, flared stroke endings and clearly bracketed wedge-like serifs that give the letterforms a carved, chiseled presence. Strokes show gentle modulation, with rounded joins and subtly tapered terminals that keep the heavy color from feeling blunt. Counters are relatively tight and compact, producing strong texture in paragraphs, while overall proportions lean slightly condensed in places with a steady, upright rhythm. Uppercase forms read crisp and stately; lowercase maintains a sturdy, bookish structure with a two-storey “g” and a firm, vertical “t,” reinforcing a traditional, print-oriented skeleton.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and cover typography where a strong serif voice is needed. It can also support editorial branding, packaging, and institutional materials that benefit from a traditional, authoritative feel, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the flared detailing reads cleanly.
The tone is authoritative and classic, with an old-style, editorial seriousness. Its flared endings add a touch of craft and heritage, suggesting established institutions, literature, or ceremonial formality rather than minimal modernity.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif conventions with subtly calligraphic, flared finishing, creating a dependable, print-forward texture that feels both traditional and distinctive. Its sturdy structure prioritizes presence and readability while using sculpted terminals to add character without becoming ornamental.
Numerals appear sturdy and evenly weighted, designed to sit comfortably alongside the letters rather than calling attention through extreme contrast or eccentric forms. The overall spacing and dark typographic color favor impactful setting at display and subhead sizes, where the sculpted terminals and bracketed serifs remain clearly legible.
