A robust serif with pronounced, bracketed serifs and subtly flared stroke endings that broaden into the terminals. Strokes show moderate contrast with strong vertical emphasis, and the overall drawing feels compact and weighty without becoming blocky. Curves are full and confident (notably in C, G, O, and S), while joins and counters stay clear and open for a dense, sturdy texture. The lowercase has a conventional, readable structure with a two-storey a, a compact e, and a firm, slightly squared rhythm across stems and bowls; numerals are similarly solid and headline-ready.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and editorial applications where a strong serif voice is desirable. It can also work for book covers, mastheads, and brand wordmarks that aim for heritage and trust, and for posters or announcements where a dense, impactful texture is an advantage.
The tone is formal and assured, evoking classic print typography and institutional credibility. Its heavy, sculpted serifs and flared terminals give it a slightly monumental, old-style warmth—serious rather than delicate—suited to messaging that needs authority and permanence.
The design appears intended to combine classical serif conventions with a more sculpted, flared terminal treatment, delivering a traditional but assertive voice. It prioritizes presence and readability, producing a confident typographic color for display and prominent text settings.
In text, the font creates a dark, even color with strong word shapes, aided by distinct caps and sturdy punctuation-like details. The presence of flaring at terminals adds character at larger sizes, while the controlled contrast helps it remain stable and legible in longer lines.
