This typeface presents a sculptural serif style with pronounced, wedge-like flared serifs and sharp, knife-edged terminals. Strokes show strong thick–thin modulation with brisk transitions, giving counters and joins a carved, slightly incised character. Curves are taut and verticals feel dominant, while many terminals finish in pointed, triangular spurs that create a lively, spiky texture. The overall rhythm is compact and slightly condensed, with a consistent, stylized serif treatment across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, book covers, and evocative branding where its sharp serif forms and high-contrast modeling can be appreciated. It can work for short editorial pull quotes or titling in larger sizes, especially when paired with a calmer text face for body copy.
The tone is dramatic and slightly gothic, evoking storybook titles, fantasy ephemera, and historical or ceremonial lettering. Its sharp, flaring details add a sense of intrigue and theatricality, reading as elegant but intentionally unconventional.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic serif structure through a decorative, chiseled terminal language, prioritizing atmosphere and silhouette over neutrality. Its consistent flared spurs and incisive contrast suggest a goal of creating a distinctive, memorable display serif for dramatic and narrative-driven typography.
Capitals have a strong display presence with distinctive flared feet and pointed apex/arm endings, while the lowercase maintains readability through clear bowls and a steady baseline. Numerals share the same chiseled, serifed construction, helping mixed text feel cohesive. The pointed serifs and high-contrast joins can create a crisp sparkle at larger sizes, with a more textured, bristling color when set tightly.
