A very heavy display serif with strong stroke contrast and distinctly flared, wedge-like terminals. Many joins and corners are articulated with sharp triangular cuts and notch-like counters, giving the letterforms a carved, incised feel rather than smooth transitions. Serifs are compact and pointed, and the overall drawing favors crisp geometry and deep internal cut-ins, producing irregular counter shapes that read clearly at large sizes. The figures and capitals show pronounced stylization, with bold, blocky masses interrupted by angled apertures and sharp inner edges.
Best suited to headlines and short display settings where the high-contrast carving details can be appreciated. It works well for poster typography, book or album covers, and branding or packaging that aims for a bold, retro-inflected voice. For longer passages, it will be most effective at larger sizes with comfortable spacing to keep the sharp internal shapes from crowding.
The font projects a theatrical, vintage-forward tone with a slightly eccentric, hand-carved energy. Its sharp notches and flared endings add drama and visual bite, making text feel declarative and personality-driven rather than neutral or purely literary.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic serif proportions through an incised, flared-terminal approach, prioritizing impact and distinctive texture over neutrality. The consistent use of wedge serifs and triangular interior cuts suggests a deliberate, ornamental system meant for attention-grabbing display typography.
In the sample text, the dense black weight creates strong texture and high impact, while the distinctive interior cuts add sparkle and rhythmic variation across words. The ampersand and several diagonals show especially angular shaping, reinforcing the chiseled, poster-like character.
