A condensed serif with tall proportions, pointed wedge-like serifs, and a distinctly angular, faceted construction. Strokes show moderate contrast with crisp transitions and a strong vertical stress, producing a dark, emphatic texture in lines of text. Many joins and terminals feel carved or notched, giving counters a slightly pinched, high-waisted look and lending capitals a monumental, sign-like presence. The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with narrow widths and compact spacing that reinforce a dense, authoritative color.
Best suited to display typography where its narrow, high-impact shapes can be appreciated—posters, headlines, title treatments, book covers, and branding that benefits from a historic or gothic flavor. It can work for short text blocks at generous sizes, but its dense color and sharp detailing will be most effective in larger settings and high-contrast reproduction.
The font reads as gothic and old-world, with a dramatic, ceremonial tone. Its sharp serifs and chiseled curves evoke historical printing and period signage, projecting seriousness, tradition, and a slightly theatrical edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive period serif that feels carved and authoritative, prioritizing strong verticality and characterful terminals over neutrality. It aims to provide a decorative, historically inflected voice for prominent typographic moments rather than everyday body text.
Capitals are especially commanding and architectural, while the lowercase keeps the same pointed, cut-in detailing for a consistent voice. Numerals share the same condensed, angular treatment, helping headings and display settings maintain a unified, vintage character.
