A sturdy serif design with heavy, sculpted strokes and subtly flared terminals that broaden into the serifs. The letters show a compact, dark rhythm with generous weight throughout and modest stroke modulation. Serifs are well-bracketed and wedge-like, giving joins a carved, slightly calligraphic feel while remaining clean and upright. Round letters are full and dense, and the lowercase maintains a strong presence with a prominent x-height and tight internal counters.
This font is well suited to headlines, book and magazine titling, and other display-forward editorial applications where a strong serif voice is desired. It can also support branding and packaging that benefits from a classic, weighty typographic anchor, especially at medium to large sizes where the sculpted serifs read clearly.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, projecting authority and solidity rather than delicacy. Its dark color and chiseled serif shapes feel confident and slightly old-style, suited to serious, established branding and print-forward contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif impression with added visual strength through flared, bracketed terminals and dense proportions. It emphasizes readability and authority while providing a distinctive, carved texture that stands out in display and editorial settings.
The figures are hefty and highly legible, with clear, stable silhouettes that match the text weight well. In longer settings the type produces a strong “ink on paper” texture, favoring impact and presence over airy openness.
