A heavy, display-oriented serif with strongly bracketed, triangular serifs and pronounced beak-like terminals. The letterforms show sharp, wedge-cut joins and deep interior notches that read like deliberate ink traps, giving strokes a carved, chiseled texture. Curves are broad and full, counters are relatively compact, and the overall rhythm is energetic, with noticeable modulation between thick stems and hairline connections. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same sculpted, high-contrast logic, with the lowercase featuring sturdy bowls and a compact, punchy footprint.
Best suited to large-size typography such as headlines, posters, magazine mastheads, and striking packaging or label work. It can also serve as a distinctive title face for book covers or editorial feature openers where strong contrast and sculpted serifs add character; it is less optimized for long passages at small sizes due to its dense weight and spiky detailing.
The tone is bold and theatrical while staying rooted in classic book and poster serif traditions. Its sharp beaks, wedge serifs, and cut-in details evoke vintage editorial headlines and old-style printed matter, projecting authority and drama rather than neutrality.
Likely drawn to deliver maximum impact in display settings while referencing conventional serif structure. The combination of traditional proportions with aggressively beaked terminals and carved-in notches suggests an aim to feel both classic and attention-grabbing, preserving serif familiarity while adding a distinctive, print-like bite.
Spacing appears intentionally roomy for headline settings, helping the dense black shapes remain legible at larger sizes. The diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y and k) are crisp and angular, reinforcing a cut-stone feel, while rounded letters (O/Q/C) keep a generous, open silhouette that balances the heavy weight.
