A sturdy serif with flared stroke endings and softly bracketed joins that give the letterforms a carved, sculptural feel. Strokes are broadly even with gentle modulation, and terminals tend toward rounded, slightly bulbous shapes that keep counters open and readable. The uppercase has strong, stable proportions and crisp serifs, while the lowercase is compact and weighty with pronounced finishing strokes on forms like a, c, e, and s. Numerals are similarly robust and clear, with traditional shapes and solid presence at text and display sizes.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and typographic titling where a classic serif voice is needed. It also fits editorial layouts and book-cover typography, and can work for branding that wants tradition, credibility, and a crafted, print-forward texture.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, evoking editorial and institutional typography. Its warm flaring and rounded terminals add a human, slightly old-style flavor, balancing formality with approachability.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic serif presence with a flared, carved finish—combining strong readability with a distinctive, old-world character that stands out in display use while remaining disciplined enough for longer passages.
The rhythm is dense and confident, with generous stroke mass that holds up well in short lines and headlines. Distinctive flared terminals and bracketed transitions create a subtle calligraphic undercurrent without appearing italic or ornate.
