A very heavy display serif with sharply chiseled, wedge-like serifs and conspicuous internal cuts that create a stencil-like, segmented color. Many curves and bowls show deliberate vertical or diagonal notches, producing strong black shapes interrupted by crisp white slits. Stroke contrast reads as high, with thick main masses and thin connecting points, while terminals stay crisp and angular. Proportions are generally broad with substantial counters, and the overall rhythm is punchy and graphic rather than text-driven.
Best suited to large-scale applications such as headlines, poster typography, title treatments, and branding where the segmented forms can be appreciated. It can add a distinctive voice to packaging and editorial display work, especially when set with generous spacing and minimal competing detail.
The font projects a bold, theatrical attitude—part vintage headline, part fashion/editorial drama. Its cut-in details suggest a carved or inlaid feeling that adds tension and sophistication, making it feel assertive, stylized, and attention-seeking.
Likely designed as a statement display serif that merges classical wedge-serif structure with stencil-like cutouts for maximum visual impact. The goal appears to be strong headline presence with a crafted, carved texture that differentiates it from conventional bold serifs.
The stencil-like interruptions vary by letter, giving the face an intentionally irregular, decorative texture across a line. Numerals and capitals carry the same segmented logic, producing striking silhouettes that hold up best at larger sizes where the interior cuts remain clear.
