A heavyweight serif with sharp, wedge-like terminals and flared stroke endings that give stems a subtly sculpted, chiseled feel. Contrast is pronounced: thick verticals and bowls are paired with finer joins and hairline-like internal transitions, producing a crisp black-on-white rhythm. Serifs are short and angular with noticeable bracketing, and many joins show pointed, ink-trap-like notches that add definition at tight corners. Uppercase forms are broad and stable with strong vertical stress, while lowercase maintains sturdy, compact counters and a firm baseline presence; numerals follow the same high-contrast, wedge-terminal construction for a cohesive texture.
Best suited for headlines, editorial display, and impactful titling where its dense weight and sharp detailing can carry. It can work for short pull quotes, cover lines, and brand marks that need a traditional yet forceful serif voice, while longer body text may benefit from generous size and spacing to keep the dark color from feeling heavy.
The overall tone is formal and commanding, with a distinctly editorial flavor. Its sharp terminals and dense color convey authority and tradition, while the sculpted flares and crisp contrast add a touch of drama that reads as premium and attention-grabbing.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, authoritative serif voice with a sculpted, flared finish—combining traditional proportions with sharper, more theatrical terminals for high-impact display typography.
At text sizes the font builds a dark, continuous typographic color with strong word-shape silhouettes, especially in caps and mixed-case settings. The pointed joins and tight interior spaces can create a slightly spiky sparkle in dense passages, which visually amplifies emphasis in headlines and short blocks.
