A sculpted serif with strongly tapered, flaring stroke endings and pronounced bracketed serifs that read as wedge-like terminals. The design shows marked thick–thin contrast, with relatively heavy verticals and sharpened joins that create crisp internal corners and pointed spur details. Counters are moderately open and the overall silhouette is broad, giving capitals a stately, poster-ready presence while the lowercase maintains clear, compact shapes with distinctive terminals and a sturdy rhythm. Numerals are similarly high-contrast and angular, with sharp entry/exit strokes that echo the letterforms.
This font performs best in headlines and display sizes where its high contrast, sharp terminals, and flared serifs can be appreciated. It is well suited to editorial titling, book and album covers, event and theatre posters, and brand marks that benefit from a formal yet forceful voice.
The overall tone is bold and ceremonious, blending classical serif cues with a slightly aggressive, carved quality. It feels formal and authoritative, with a theatrical edge that suits attention-grabbing statements more than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to reinterpret traditional serif and inscriptional forms with heightened contrast and assertive, flaring terminals. Its broad proportions and sculpted details prioritize impact and character in display typography while keeping letterforms consistent enough for short text settings.
Across the set, terminals frequently resolve into acute points or short flares rather than soft balls, producing a chiseled texture in text. The ampersand and punctuation adopt the same wedge-terminal language, helping display lines look cohesive and intentionally stylized.
