A calligraphic blackletter with broken, angular strokes and pointed terminals. Forms are built from strong verticals and faceted curves, with medium contrast that suggests pen-driven modulation rather than geometric construction. Capitals are elaborate and wide-set, featuring prominent swashes and internal crossings, while lowercase maintains a compact, rhythmic texture with tightly spaced counters and frequent diagonals. Numerals follow the same chiseled, historicized logic, with angled joins and tapered ends that keep the set visually cohesive.
Best suited for display typography such as posters, album or book titles, mastheads, and branding where a historic or gothic mood is desired. It can also work well on packaging, labels, certificates, and event materials when set with generous size and spacing to preserve the internal detailing.
The overall tone is medieval and ceremonial, projecting tradition, authority, and drama. Its sharp rhythm and decorative capitals evoke manuscript lettering and heraldic display, giving text a formal, old-world presence even at short phrases.
Likely designed to capture a traditional manuscript-inspired blackletter voice with expressive capitals and a consistent calligraphic rhythm across the alphabet and figures. The emphasis appears to be on atmosphere and authenticity for display use rather than neutral, continuous text reading.
The design leans on distinctive, high-character capitals for impact, while the lowercase is more restrained but still strongly stylized; this creates a pronounced hierarchy between headline and text settings. The broken construction and narrow internal spaces make it best suited to sizes where the internal detailing can remain clear.
