A sturdy serif with bracketed, slightly flared serifs and gently cupped terminals that create a warm, ink-on-paper feel. Strokes show moderate modulation and a subtly calligraphic rhythm, with rounded joins and softened corners that keep the heavy forms from looking harsh. Proportions are traditional: compact lowercase with a relatively low x-height, ample ascenders, and slightly wide, open counters that help maintain clarity in the darker weight. The numerals read as oldstyle figures with varying heights and pronounced curves, reinforcing the text-oriented character.
Well suited for book and long-form editorial typography where a strong, traditional serif is desired, especially at text and subhead sizes. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and packaging copy that benefits from a classic, trustworthy tone and dark, assertive color on the page.
The overall tone is classic and literary, with a confident, editorial voice that feels established rather than trendy. Its softened serifs and rounded details add approachability and a hint of nostalgia, suggesting printed books, newspapers, and traditional publishing.
This design appears aimed at delivering a conventional, print-friendly serif with a solid typographic color and a slightly human, calligraphic softness. The emphasis is on dependable readability and an established editorial feel, with details that add warmth without departing from traditional text-serif norms.
Capitals are broad and steady with pronounced serifs and minimal fuss, while the lowercase shows lively shapes (notably the ear and bowls) that add texture to paragraphs. The ampersand and punctuation appear robust and well matched to the weight, supporting dense setting without looking spindly.
