A high-contrast display serif with slender hairlines and fuller stems, combining crisp, flared serifs with pointed, blade-like terminals. Counters tend to be narrow and sculpted, with several characters showing distinctive cut-ins and wedge-shaped joins that give an engraved, incised impression. The rhythm is vertical and formal, with tight apertures in letters like C, S, and e, and a slightly variable, hand-cut feel across curves and diagonals. Numerals and capitals share the same sharp, ornamental logic, prioritizing silhouette and texture over neutral readability.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short phrases where its sharp terminals and high-contrast texture can read clearly. It works particularly well for posters, book or album covers, film titling, and premium packaging that benefits from a dramatic, ornamental serif voice.
The overall tone is theatrical and slightly ominous, balancing elegance with a dark, ritualistic flair. Its spiky terminals and carved-in details evoke vintage poster lettering, fantasy titling, and dramatic editorial styling rather than everyday text.
The design appears intended as a distinctive display serif that merges classical high-contrast construction with decorative, carved details to create a memorable, atmosphere-heavy typographic signature.
Distinctive interior shapes—especially the diamond-like counter in the O and the angular, notched construction in several capitals—create a strong, recognizable texture at larger sizes. The lowercase shows an intentionally stylized ductus, with narrow bowls and compressed openings that can read as decorative when set in longer lines.
