A condensed serif with sturdy verticals and subtly flared stroke endings that broaden into tapered, beak-like terminals. Serifs are bracketed and sculpted rather than blunt, giving the outlines a carved, slightly calligraphic feel while keeping an overall upright, controlled posture. Contrast is moderate, with strong main stems and narrower connecting strokes; curves are compact and counters are relatively tight, producing a dense, high-impact texture in lines of text. Lowercase shows a large x-height and short extenders, reinforcing the compact rhythm and poster-like presence.
Best suited to headlines, decks, and editorial typography where a compact width and strong presence are useful. It can work for book or magazine covers, packaging, and branding that benefits from a traditional yet forceful serif voice, especially in display sizes or tight column settings.
The face reads as authoritative and editorial, with a vintage seriousness that feels at home in traditional publishing. Its condensed, emphatic shapes add drama and urgency without drifting into novelty, making it feel confident, formal, and slightly old-world.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, combining classical serif cues with flared, sculptural terminals to create a distinctive, print-forward texture. The large x-height and condensed proportions suggest an emphasis on readable, space-efficient display and editorial composition.
The capitals are tall and commanding, with a consistent vertical stress and crisp, chiseled terminals that help maintain clarity at larger sizes. Numerals and punctuation match the same condensed, weight-forward tone, supporting strong headlines and tightly set copy.
