A heavy, angular blackletter with faceted strokes and sharp, chiseled terminals. Counters are small and often vertically oriented, and the joins form pointed inner corners that create a dense, rhythmic texture across words. Uppercase forms read as tall and architectural with wedge-like tops and feet, while lowercase retains a compact, broken-stem construction with spurs and notched shoulders. Numerals follow the same cut-metal logic, with straight-sided bowls and brisk diagonal cuts that keep the set visually consistent.
Best suited to display settings where the angular texture can be appreciated: headlines, posters, title treatments, logotypes, and packaging with a historic or gothic mood. It can work for short passages when set large with generous tracking and leading, but the dense counters and sharp joins favor brief, emphatic text.
The font conveys a medieval, ceremonial tone—stern, traditional, and insistent. Its dense color and sharp edges feel heraldic and institutional, suggesting authority and craft rather than softness or informality.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, traditional blackletter voice with a crisp, carved feel and consistent angular detailing across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. Its construction prioritizes strong silhouette and decorative rhythm for impactful display typography.
In text, the strong black massing produces pronounced word shapes and a tight, patterned rhythm; spacing and small apertures make it most comfortable at display sizes. Distinctive wedge terminals and frequent internal notches create a carved, engraved impression that holds together well in headings and short lines.
