A faceted, angular serif design with pronounced wedge-like serifs and frequent chamfered corners that create an octagonal, cut-stone silhouette. Strokes are generally sturdy with modest thick–thin modulation, and terminals often end in sharp, triangular points rather than soft curves. Counters tend toward squared or polygonal forms (notably in round letters and numerals), and the overall rhythm is compact and deliberate, with a slightly condensed feel in places and strongly defined joins and notches that emphasize structure.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short passages where a historic or formal voice is desired—such as posters, editorial display, branding marks, and packaging. It can also work for chapter heads or pull quotes when you want a pronounced traditional texture and strong typographic personality.
The font conveys a historic, Gothic-leaning tone with a ceremonial, proclamation-like presence. Its sharp facets and wedge serifs give it an authoritative, old-world character that reads as formal and traditional rather than casual or modern.
The design appears intended to translate blackletter-influenced, chiseled forms into a readable serif text/display hybrid, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a distinctly traditional flavor. Its consistent faceting and wedge serifs suggest an aim for high impact and a crafted, engraved aesthetic in contemporary compositions.
The angular construction stays consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive, carved look in both display lines and short text. The face favors crisp edges and strong silhouettes, so it maintains impact even when letterforms are tightly set.
