A heavy, high-impact serif with sculpted, flaring stroke endings and pronounced thick–thin contrast. Stems feel chiseled and slightly bracketed into the serifs, with rounded joins and occasional ball-like terminals that soften the otherwise forceful construction. Counters are compact and the overall texture is dense, with broad letterforms and a steady upright stance. In text, the weight and contrast create strong vertical rhythm, while subtle flare and tapered details add a carved, print-like finish.
Best suited to display settings where a strong voice is needed—editorial headlines, poster typography, branding wordmarks, and packaging. It can also work for short, emphatic subheads or pull quotes, especially at larger sizes where the flared detailing and contrast are clearly visible.
The font projects a confident, traditional tone with a dramatic, headline-forward presence. Its flared detailing and compact counters evoke vintage editorial typography—authoritative, slightly theatrical, and designed to command attention. The overall impression is bold and classic rather than delicate or minimalist.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif structure with a more sculptural, flared finish, producing a bold display face that feels both traditional and attention-grabbing. Its wide proportions and dense texture suggest it was drawn to create immediate visual impact while retaining familiar serif cues.
Distinctive flare and tapering in strokes make the silhouettes feel hand-shaped rather than purely geometric. The numerals share the same weight and contrast as the capitals, reading solid and poster-ready. In longer lines, the dense color can dominate the page, favoring strong hierarchy over quiet readability.
