A very heavy, wedge-serif letterform with compact proportions and pronounced stroke modulation. The outlines show deliberate irregularity, with slightly roughened edges and uneven ink-like buildup that creates a worn, printed texture. Serifs are broad and flared with soft bracketing, and many joins and terminals feel blunted rather than sharply cut, reinforcing the hand-pressed look. The overall rhythm is sturdy and dark, with a consistent, dense color across both uppercase and lowercase, plus similarly weighty numerals.
Best suited to display typography where the distressed texture can remain visible: posters, bold headlines, product packaging, labels, and signage. It can also work for short editorial callouts or pull quotes when a rugged, vintage-leaning tone is desired, but the dense weight and rough edges make it less ideal for long passages at small sizes.
The font conveys a rustic, old-world confidence—bold and attention-grabbing, but with a tactile, imperfect finish that suggests age, craft, and physical printing. Its uneven edges and heavy presence give it a lively, slightly rough character that reads as handmade rather than clinical.
Likely designed to provide a strong, classic serif foundation with a deliberately worn, inked finish—combining old-style shapes and flared serifs with a distressed surface to evoke handmade printing and heritage branding.
Counters are relatively tight for the weight, helping create a strong silhouette at display sizes. The texture is consistent across letters and figures, so it reads as an intentional distressed treatment rather than random noise.
