A condensed serif with strong vertical emphasis, sharp tapering terminals, and pronounced thick–thin contrast. Serifs are bracketing and often flare into wedge-like points, giving strokes a carved, slightly calligraphic feel. Counters run tight and tall, with compact bowls and crisp joins that produce a dense, dark texture in text. The lowercase shows traditional serif structures with a relatively modest x-height and sturdy stems, while capitals read stately and compact with narrow widths and assertive top/bottom detailing.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, mastheads, posters, and title treatments where its condensed proportions and sharp contrast can create impact. It can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes when generous leading and tracking are used to avoid an overly dense color in longer passages.
The overall tone is dramatic and old-world, pairing a formal, editorial presence with a slightly theatrical flair. Its sharp terminals and compressed stance suggest classic display typography associated with vintage posters, book titling, and period-inspired branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact serif voice that feels classical yet stylized, emphasizing verticality and pointed, flared finishing strokes for a distinctive display character.
Texture in paragraph settings is strongly striped due to dominant verticals and tight spacing, and the pointed, flared terminals add a decorative edge without becoming ornamental in every glyph. Numerals and capitals maintain the same tall, compressed rhythm, reinforcing a consistent headline-oriented voice.
